The maps below compare 2 floor plans of one trade conference held in 2009 and 2010.
SAMPLE ANSWER
The given maps depict the differences in the layout of a trade conference during two different years, 2009 and 2010.
Overall, the most striking difference in the layout is that the concert hall and meeting room were both replaced with a new exhibition area. Additionally, while there was a display area in 2009, it was removed the following year.
To begin with, the concert hall and meeting room, located in the western part of the conference center were cleared to make room for a large exhibition area. Another notable detail is that the display area close to those two rooms was removed. Previously in 2009, there had been a registration area situated between the main entrance and the side door, however this was moved next to the balcony and replaced with a refreshment area in 2010.
The south-eastern part of the conference hall also witnessed a significant change in the layout. Specifically, the balcony in the south-east corner was equipped with a lounge area. Beside the balcony, a new concert hall, with stage and seating, replaced the exhibition area that had been built the year before.
