"Gene mapping" refers to the mapping of genes to specific locations on chromosomes.  It is a critical step in the understanding of genetic diseases.  There are two types of gene mapping:

Genetic Mapping - using linkage analysis to determine the relative position between two genes on a chromosome.

Physical Mapping - using all available techniques or information to determine the absolute position of a gene on a chromosome.
