Map Labeling
The problem of label placement is usually divided into
point labeling
(e.g. cities with horizontal labels)
line labeling
(rivers with tilted labels)
area labeling (countries with curved labels)
but there are also algorithms for
the general labeling problem
The
Map Labeling bibliography
contains references to literature about these topics.
