1. A method for determining when to invoke a computer routine to halt label movement of a group of labels on a map utilizing a computer system comprising the computer implemented steps of:

  • determining for the group of labels a collision score;

    determining for the group of labels an iteration count;

    determining for the group of labels a slow change count; and

    determining for the group of labels an oscillation count;

    wherein the routine to halt label movement is invoked when the collision score indicates there are no label collisions, or the iteration count is greater than a first given value, or the slow change count is greater than a second given value, or the oscillation count is greater than a third given value.
