Questions and Answers

Match the type of map with its characteristics:

Thematic Maps = Designed to depict a particular type of feature or measurement Reference Maps = Not designed for any specific application Topographic Maps = Used for population distribution studies Analog Maps = Easier to edit digitally

Match the planning level with its suggested scale:

National Planning = 1:50,000 Metropolitan Planning = 1:1,500,000 Municipality/City Planning = 1:10,000 Regional Planning = 1:25,000

Match the type of map with its example:

Topographic Maps = Population distribution maps Thematic Maps = Flood maps Reference Maps = Land cover maps Analog Maps = Topographic Maps

Match the characteristic with the type of map:
