Chorems are schematized representations of territories, and so they can represent a good visual summary of spatial databases. Indeed for spatial decision-makers, it is more important to identify and map problems than facts. Until now, chorems were made manually by geographers based on the own knowledge of the territory. So, an international project was launched in order to automatically discover spatial patterns and layout chorems starting from spatial databases. After examining some manually-made chorems some guidelines were identified. Then the architecture of a prototype system is presented based on a canonical database structure, a subsystem for spatial patterns discovery based on spatial data mining, a subsystem for chorem layout, and a specialized language to represent chorems.
