During the alligator-hunting sequence in "V," the guy in charge constructs some kind of map-grid of the city, but it's mentioned more in passing, then as a major theme.

I'm very interested in Pynchon's use of maps. Of course, I've read M&D
carefully, and I'm familiar with Slothrop's map in GR. But are there
mentions of maps or mapmaking in his other work? I haven't gotten to V. or
Vineland yet, and I thought I'd check with you guys to see if you had any
ideas.
