from studying mental maps in monkeys ( im a psychology student) i'm impressed the article you posted was able to flesh it out so much.... basically your mental map is as you know, the world around you.

so going to work, you can close your eyes and probably run through that in your head and yes, awareness is increased, maybe because you go through a bad area when its dark during winter.

jsut remember that a mental map for actual tactics is only as useful as the current people involved so i guess escape routes are the things to memorise.

The author seems to interchangeably use what you say as the ' good habits' to keep you safe and aware when that isnt really a mental map its more summing up your current surroundings. mental maps are just memorising geography.

.... I'm now aware I sucked all the fun out of that.
