I think the term "spatio-temporal map" is not relevant for what you seek.
In geovisualisation this term is generally used to show phenomenon that
vary over space and time. A typical example is an animation (of a map) that
shows the change of census boundaries over time.
Typically, the travel-time separations between places is shown as an
overlay over an ordinary map. For example, you can draw concentric
circles/irregular shapes outward from a point of origin, whereby the radius
of the shapes is an indication of time/distance from the origin. You could
also use some type of continuous shading instead of shapes to show the
variations.
