Map scale1
The document discusses map scale, which is the ratio that compares measurements on a map to actual distances. It explains that scale bars show the distance represented by their length in kilometers or miles, allowing users to calculate distances with a ruler. Finally, it notes that all maps are drawn to a certain scale that varies depending on the size of the area depicted.
Map Reading -1
A map is a flat representation of the Earth or a part of the Earth drawn to scale. It is created by cartographers, people who make maps. A globe is a 3D model of the Earth that can be rotated, showing its actual spherical shape. Unlike maps, globes display the true shapes and sizes of continents and include more topographical details. However, maps are more practical as they can be easily transported and stored by rolling or folding. A sketch is a rough drawing used to convey an idea or location, while a plan is a detailed drawing made to scale, typically of a building or small area, to show necessary features.
Module 1 part 1
The document discusses the differences between maps and globes, as well as two methods for defining the location of places - relative location and absolute location using latitude and longitude.

Maps And Globes Are Models Of The Earth
1. Maps and globes are models that represent features on Earth's surface. Maps show natural and human features from an above view, while globes show Earth as seen from space with accurate sizes and shapes.
2. Maps use symbols to indicate different land features such as mountains, plateaus, and plains. They also use scales and legends to relate distances on maps to actual distances and explain symbols.
3. Latitude and longitude lines are used to locate positions on Earth, with latitude measuring distances north and south of the equator and longitude measuring distances east and west of the prime meridian.
Orienteering
Orienteering Is an outdoor activity where participant’s goal is finding the various checkpoints (with specific sequence) in a pre set course using a especially created detailed map and the compass to navigate in an unfamiliar terrain.
Can be done as a fun recreational activity or a very competitive sport requiring navigational skills, techniques, and decision making skills to bring a person from one pace to another at the least time possible.
Orienteering
Orienteering is an outdoor sport that involves navigating through unfamiliar terrain using a map and compass. It originated in Scandinavia in the late 1800s and came to the US in the 1940s. The goal is to navigate between control points of varying distances, from less than a mile to over 4 miles. Key skills include reading topographic maps, using a compass, pacing distances, navigating with techniques like using beelines or contour lines, and identifying one's location using a grid coordinate system.
Maps and globes
The document discusses maps and globes. It explains that globes are spherical models of the Earth that show accurate positioning of landmasses and oceans, but lack detail and cannot show the entire Earth at once. Maps are flat representations that show specific areas and details better than globes. There are different types of maps like political, physical, and thematic maps. Maps use symbols, colors, scale, and directions to represent various geographic features and locations.
4 dumpy level surveying introduction
The document discusses dumpy level surveying and provides information about various surveying tools and techniques. It defines contours as lines that join areas of equal elevation on a map. It states that a scale of 1:25,000 on a map means that every 1cm on the map represents 25,000cm or 250m in real life. The document also describes what an alidade, plane table, tripod, theodolite, compass, measuring tape, GPS, leveling staff are and what they are used for in surveying. It indicates that a dumpy level is used to find the elevation of a point relative to a known level and that contour lines are used to mark elevation information on a map.
Orienteering
Orienteering is an outdoor sport where competitors navigate through unfamiliar terrain using a map and compass to locate control points. It began in Sweden in the late 19th century as military training and has grown into a competitive sport open to civilians. Participants use maps, compasses, and control description sheets to navigate through forests and find orange and white kites marking the control points, checking in using a finger stick. The goal is to locate all controls in the fastest time while using the map's symbols like contour lines to determine elevation changes across the landscape.
Models of the Earth - Mapping
This document discusses models of the Earth and methods for finding locations on its surface. It explains that the globe is a spherical representation with no top or bottom and uses the Earth's rotation as a reference point. Latitude and longitude are used to specify locations, where latitude is the distance north or south of the equator and longitude is the distance east or west of the prime meridian. Various map projections like Mercator and conic are described which allow depicting the spherical Earth on a flat surface.
Maps as Models of Earth
This document provides information about key concepts for reading and understanding topographic maps, including:
- Contour lines connect points of equal elevation and are used to show elevation changes on topographic maps. Closer contour lines indicate steeper slopes.
- Relief, elevation difference between highest and lowest points in an area, determines the contour interval or spacing between lines.
- Contour lines have set rules like never crossing, being V-shaped in valleys, and forming closed circles around peaks.
Maps
The document discusses key concepts for reading maps, including latitude and longitude which form a grid system for locating positions on Earth. Latitude lines run east to west and are measured in degrees north and south of the equator, while longitude lines converge at the poles and are measured in degrees east and west of the prime meridian. Examples of latitude and longitude coordinates for several US cities are given. The document also covers map projections, explaining that maps represent the spherical Earth on a flat surface, which inevitably causes some distortion, and names the Mercator and Robinson projections.
Right ascension
The latitudes, longitudes Standard time Right ascension ascendent celestial sphere precision of equinox
Celestial coordinates
Celestial coordinates are used to define positions of objects in the sky and there are two main systems - equatorial and horizontal coordinates. The equatorial system uses right ascension and declination, where declination is measured in degrees north or south of the celestial equator. Right ascension is measured in hours, minutes, and seconds along the celestial equator. The horizontal coordinate system uses altitude and azimuth which depend on the observer's location and measure the angular distances above the horizon and east from north. Celestial coordinates can change slightly over time due to the phenomenon of precession as the equinoxes and poles very slowly change position.
Latitudine e longitudine
Latitude indicates your position north or south of the equator. It can be measured by taking the angle of the sun or pole star at noon - the higher the sun, the closer you are to the equator. Lines of latitude run parallel to each other. Longitude indicates your position east or west and is measured in degrees from the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England. It can be calculated by comparing your local time to Greenwich Mean Time, as there is a one hour difference for every 15 degrees of longitude.

The Big Dipper and Little Dipper constellations can help locate the North Star. It notes that the North Star can only be seen in the northern hemisphere and gets higher in the sky the farther north one travels. Other stars may be used for navigation but require more frequent checks of direction. The Southern Cross is used as a guide south of the equator.
Intro to Orienteering
Orienteering involves navigating between points using a map and compass. It can be enjoyed leisurely or competitively. An orienteering course consists of a start, controls to visit in order, and a finish. Controls are marked on the map and terrain with a flag and punch. Orienteers choose their own route between controls and verify visits by punching their control card. Orienteering provides mental and physical challenges in nature for people of all ages and skill levels. Basic orienteering skills include orienting the map, map reading, and relocating when lost. The Ottawa Orienteering Club hosts various event types for beginners to advanced participants.

Creation of the stack
Over millions of years, volcanic activity and uplift formed a headland composed of weak breccia conglomerate along the coast. Erosion from waves up to 1.5 meters high opened cracks in the headland through hydraulic action and spray splash. Around 30,000 to 10,000 years ago, a cave formed as the cracks widened. Between 1,000 to 500 years ago, vegetation growth and erosion broke through the headland, creating a sea arch. Finally, from 5-400 years ago, the weakened arch roof collapsed, leaving the isolated 20 meter tall Motutara Island stack.

Maps and globes
This document discusses maps and globes. It defines what maps and globes are, and lists their key parts and purposes. Maps are flat drawings that represent places from an aerial view, while globes are round models that show the entire Earth. Both maps and globes have compass roses to indicate directions, symbols that are explained in keys, scales to measure distances, titles to identify what is depicted, and labels for locations. Their purposes are to determine routes, model Earth's surface features, and locate places. The document provides examples of each map part and encourages learners to identify the six main parts of a map.
Compass & Bearings
1) A compass is used to determine bearings to navigate from one point to another. The direction of travel arrow points towards the destination and the red end of the needle points to north.
2) To find a bearing on a map, place the compass on the map with the direction of travel arrow pointing towards the destination. Rotate the dial until the orienting lines align with the map gridlines and north is at the top. The bearing is read at the index line.
3) Declination is the difference between true north and magnetic north and must be accounted for when converting between map bearings and compass bearings. The rules are "Map to compass, dump it. Compass to map, add it back

Geography - Maps - Class 6
The document discusses different types of maps and their uses. It explains that maps are drawings that represent the earth's surface at a reduced scale to fit on a page. While globes are useful for studying the entire earth, maps provide more detailed information about specific regions. There are different types of maps like physical maps, political maps, and thematic maps that focus on natural features, borders, or specific data like transportation or rainfall. Maps allow distances and locations to be accurately measured using scales that relate distances on the map to actual distances on ground. Symbols, directions, and scales are important components of maps that provide detailed information in a clear format.
Bearings
Bearings are used to determine accurate directions for navigation, mainly when flying planes. A bearing is the direction from one's location to a distant point, measured in degrees clockwise from north. Variation accounts for the difference between magnetic and true north, as charts use true north but compasses point to magnetic north. A course bearing is the direction followed to stay on a planned route, given in true or magnetic degrees, while accounting for variation.

Direction intro
- 1. How can we show direction and distance? WHAT – To understand how we describe direction and how a compass is used to show direction. WHY – So that we can use direction to describe where something is located. HOW – By using the compass points to describe routes and locations.
- 2. What is this and what is it used for? What activities would you use it for?
- 3. How does a compass work? No matter where you stand on Earth, you can hold a compass in your hand and it will point toward the North Pole. What an unbelievably neat and amazing thing! Imagine that you are in the middle of the ocean, and you are looking all around you in every direction and all you can see is water, and it is overcast so you cannot see the sun... How in the world would you know which way to go unless you had a compass to tell you which way is "up"? Long before GPS satellites and other high-tech navigational aids, the compass gave humans an easy and inexpensive way to orient themselves. Can you now add to your starter?
- 4. A way to remember N never NW wheatabix eat Soggy NE E SE S W SW
- 5. The Compass Points. • Direction = the point towards which you face or move. • Compass = an instrument used to find direction; it has a magnetised needle that points north. • Compass rose =the pattern on a map that shows the direction of north. • The main (cardinal) compass points are N (north), E (east), S (south) and W (west). 1. Copy the diagram and keywords above into your book. 2. Complete the worksheet
- 6. Practice
- 7. When using a compass you can use Degrees to describe how far you should turn.
- 8. Calculate the correct directions from Port A to Port B.
