Principal component analysis(PCA) has been used in Architectural Planning and Urban Planning. However, PCA can not always project the feature of samples onto low dimensional space. Therefore another mapping technic should be desired in the field. In this article, non-linear mapping (NLM) is employed to make an image map of a novel, 'Industrial Complex with Time Slip,' written by Yoriko SHOUNO. PCA is also employed tocompare the maps each other. Meaning of the city is read by chasing the locus of scenes in the NLM map. Then it can be said that the NLM map is an image map of the city.
