Retinotopic Maps in V1: V1 contains a retinotopic map of the visual Field. Adjacent Neurons represent adjacent regions in the retina. That particular small retinal region from which a single neuron receives its input is called the receptive field of this neuron.

V1 receives information from both eyes. Alternating regions in V1 (Ocular Dominanz Columns) receive (predominantely) Input from either the left or the right eye.
Each location in the cortex represents a different part of the visual scene through the activity of many neurons. Different neurons encode different aspects of the image. For example, orientation of edges, color, motion speed and direction, etc.
V1 dicomposes an image into these components.

Orientation selectivity in V1:
Orientation selective neurons in V1 change their activity (i.e., their frequency for generating action potentials) depending on the orientation of a light bar projected onto the receptive Field. These Neurons, thus, represent the orientation of lines oder edges in the image.

Superpositioning of maps in V1: Thus, neurons in V1 are orientation selective. They are, however, also selective for retinal position and ocular dominance as well as for color and motion. These are called „features“. The neurons are therefore akin to „feature-detectors“.
For each of these parameter there exists a topographic map.
These maps co-exist and are superimposed onto each other. In this way at every location in the cortex one finds a neuron which encodes a certain „feature“. This principle is called „full coverage“.
