    I used symap for my the last quarter of my thesis in Architecture in 1970. I utilized census data as planning tool to predict
    where building of various service functions should be located. I guess it was th Big Data of it's day. I produced a series of maps with respect to the west Garfield Park area in Chicago . I used the IBM computer in the engineering building at the
    University of Illinois Chicago circle. I do not have the punch cards only the maps. Anyone interested?

    You might also want to ask in alt.folklore.computers, the place where
    people discuss computing history.
