Prompt Cartography Workflow

A reusable path from first intent to critique, revision, accessibility, and reproducible handoff.

Define who the map serves and what decision it should support.

Check data quality, coverage, assumptions, and missing context.

Choose map type, visual hierarchy, classification, and interaction stance.

Turn the design problem into structured instructions and constraints.

Produce an initial draft without pretending it is finished.

Evaluate the map against audience, task, data, and design principles.

Convert critique into targeted, testable revision instructions.

Check contrast, language, uncertainty disclosure, and persuasive risk.

Prepare deliverables, metadata, source notes, and reproducibility artifacts.

Record what changed, why it changed, and what should be reusable.

Use agent prompts, schemas, and checklists exactly where they fit in the workflow.

Practice the workflow with classroom-ready activities and deliverables.

Generate prompt briefs and map critiques through lightweight browser forms.
