# Attack Resource Locators The 'Map of the Dead' is a Must When Zombies Strike By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-04-10 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/map-of-the-dead References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2012/04/09/zombie-outbreak-a-map-of-resources/) & [mapofthedead](http://www.mapofthedead.com/) The 'Map of the Dead' is a world map that is must-have in a zombie apocalypse. When zombies attack and resources are scarce, this map will guide one to the places they need to go to survive. The map was designed with [Google Maps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mapisy), and allows users to find [resources all over the world](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/readystash-ai). When zoomed in on a city, one will see little icons pop up that show the location of places like a [gun store](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birdie-store-locator-map), a hospital, a grocery store, a radio tower, a gas station and even a dentist. Once one has stocked up on supplies, it might be wise to head to a harbor, an airport or even a campground, all of which are pinpointed on the map. If the zombies do take over, hopefully the Internet will still be up and running to use this extremely helpful map. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Zombie Survival Maps:** Opportunity for technology companies to create interactive maps for survivalists. - **Disaster Resource Locators:** Opportunity for companies to develop similar resource maps for other types of disasters. - **Augmented Reality Survival Guides:** Opportunity for companies to develop AR-enabled survival guides to show real-time information about resources and danger zones. ### Where This Applies - **Technology:** Technology companies can develop and offer their solutions to the survivalist market. - **Retail:** Retail companies can consider offering products that cater to survivalist needs. - **Emergency Management:** Emergency response and management companies can integrate these resources maps in their systems for disaster response planning. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Zombie Survival Challenges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bullets-brains.md) - [Smartphone Map App Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mapapp-feature.md) - [Paranormal Mapping Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-town1.md) - [Nuclear Risk Assessments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuclear-disaster-map.md) - [Church Locator Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/find-nearby-churches.md) - [Park-Navigating Map Updates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/map-update.md) - [Firearm Policy Mapping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-gun-zones-map-tool.md) - [Engaging Travel Maps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-maps.md) - [City Navigation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-path.md)
