Combining insights from sociology and geography, we examine how professionals organize professional relations, beyond the boundaries of their professional groups and through the process of mapmaking. We take the Netherlands as our case study. Here, between 2009 and 2015, the Ministry of Health initiated a program that stimulated professionals to develop alternative organizational formats for the provision of integrated primary care. Two of the funded projects used mapping techniques in order to give direction to such integrated organizational formats. Based on the literature, we develop and deploy an analytical framework that aims to capture: (1) how professionals shaped interprofessional relations through mapmaking; and (2) what the organizational consequences were of the maps developed. We reveal how professionals differentiated between elements during the mapmaking process. We furthermore demonstrate how such differentiations shaped the developed maps in particular ways. This, in turn, influenced whether and how these maps gave direction to new organizational formats. We close this article with three points that scholars need to take into account when studying mapmaking in order to gain processual and dynamic insight into the organization of professional practice.

地图制作和专业实践的（重新）组织：荷兰初级保健的案例研究

结合社会学和地理学的见解，我们研究专业人士如何组织专业关系，超越其专业群体的界限并通过制图过程。我们以荷兰为案例研究。在此，2009 年至 2015 年间，卫生部启动了一项计划，鼓励专业人员开发提供综合初级保健的替代组织形式。其中两个获得资助的项目使用了绘图技术，以便为这种整合的组织形式指明方向。基于文献，我们开发并部署了一个分析框架，旨在捕捉：（1）专业人士如何通过制图来塑造跨专业关系；(2) 开发的地图的组织后果是什么。我们揭示了专业人士在地图制作过程中如何区分元素。我们进一步展示了这种差异如何以特定方式塑造了开发的地图。这反过来又影响了这些地图是否以及如何为新的组织格式指明方向。我们以学者在研究地图制作时需要考虑的三点来结束本文，以便获得对专业实践组织的过程和动态洞察。
