Chart Mapping is a mechanism for rule-based manipulation of token feature structures, usually with the aim to adapt the preprocessed input to the expectations of the grammar.

Implementation status:

• Chart mapping is part of the PET main branch since August 2010.
• Chart mapping is not yet implemented in LKB.
