                    TOPIC



                 A DITA topic is a titled unit of information that can be understood in isolation and
                 used in multiple contexts. It should be short enough to address a single subject or
                 answer a single question but long enough to make sense on its own and be authored
                 as a self-contained unit

                                        Multi Dimensional         Contextual            Specialised


                   DITA
                   Map




                 A DITA map is a documents that organize topics and other resources into structured
                 collections of information. DITA maps specify hierarchy and the relationships among
                 the topics; they also provide the context in which keys are defined and resolved
