unmappable
Cannot be diagrammed
Unable to be mapped or represented on a map.
The term applies literally to terrain too remote, dangerous, or changeable to chart: The shifting sandbars made the delta unmappable.
More often it describes abstract things that resist systematic representation: the unmappable territory of grief, an unmappable network of informal agreements.
