Spatial information provides powerful and unique constraints on the physics and chemistry of planetary atmospheres and surfaces, including cloud formation, structure, and evolution; atmospheric dynamics; compositional variations in gas, solid, and liquid phases; as well as inferring surface spectra — including biosignatures — and surface coverage. Recent years have seen exciting progress in this new field, including numerical methods to interpret time-resolved exoplanet data, the first maps of brown dwarfs and transiting exoplanets, and exciting ideas and technique to map habitable zone exo-earths.

In our "Mapping Other Worlds" session we will explore:
1) state-of-the-art observations of spatially resolved ultracool atmospheres;
2) methods to obtain spatially resolved exoplanet data in the future;
3) approaches to deduce spatial information from time-resolved data;
4) science goals that can be achieved through spatially resolved data.

In this talk we will summarize the key results presented in the Mapping Other Worlds satellite session.
