3. 1. Title – This label gives you
the idea about the purpose
and type of information that
the map tries to show.

5. 2. Compass Rose – It is usually a circular
guide for directions located at the corner of
the map. Aside from indicating the upward
location of the map, it also describes the
main (east, west, north, south) and the
intermediary (northeast, northwest,
southeast, southwest) directions toward all
locations.

8. 3. Labels – It details the different
items that can be seen in the
areas of the map like the names
countries and capital cities,
famous landmarks, names of
bodies of water, and others.

9. Research about the
different Land Forms
and Bodies of Water.

10. 4. Legend/Key – This is usually
enclosed in a box and situated
at the side of the map. It
defines all symbols, colors and
other markings used in the
map.

13. 5. Scale – It describes the
ratio between the length of
the map as compared to the
real unit distance of lands and
bodies of water on earth.

15. 6. Symbols – These are graphical
representations of different items
that can be found in the map
locations such as mountains,
rivers, capital cities, natural
resources, and economic activities.

17. 7. Longitudes or Meridians -
These are imaginary lines
drawn from North to South
Pole of the earth equidistant
to one another.

19. 8. Altitudes – These describe the imaginary
horizontal lines that runs from east to west of
the map. Some other important lines that runs
through the Altitudes are:
- Equator – the imaginary line situated at the
middle of the earth
- Tropics of Cancer – the imaginary line 23
degrees north of the Equator

20. - Tropic of Capricorn – the imaginary line 23 degrees
south of the Equator
- Arctic Circle – the imaginary line that surrounds the
North Pole
where the Arctic is located.
- Antarctic Circle – the imaginary line that surrounds the
South Pole
where the Antarctic is located.

21. 9.Absolute and relative location
– the absolute location pertains to
the place on earth that fall exactly
at the point where the altitude and
longitude meets.

22. 10. Inset Map – This pertains to a
larger scale representation of a
portion of the map and is usually
projected on the uncluttered side
of the map.

26. 1.Continent – a huge connected bodies of
land
2. Island – a mass of land surrounded by
water
3.Archipelago – islands surrounded by
water
4. Isthmus – a narrow strip of land between
two large bodies of water SAND BAR

27. 5.Peninsula – large projection of land into
water
6.Plateau – an elevated land mass with
flat surface on its crest
7.Cape – a projection of land into water
8.Mountain – an elevated land mass that
is peaked

28. 9. Elevation – the height of land above
sea level
10. Volcano – a land mass the same with
mountain but emits lava and other
materials when active

30. 1. Ocean – the largest body of water that
makes up 2/3 of the earth‘s surface. The
different oceans that surround the earth
are the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, and
Arctic.
2. Sea – second to the largest body of
water. Some of which are the Black Sea,
Dead Sea, and Caspian Sea

31. 3. Gulf – a large body of water that
extends beyond into land
4.Bay – a smaller body of water than the
Gulf that protrudes into land
5.Lake – a body of water surrounded by
land
6. Strait – the water passage between
lands

33. 1. Physical Map – It
identifies all landforms
and bodies of water that
can be found in different
parts of the earth.

36. 2. Topography Map – It is somewhat
similar to the Physical Map for showing
different landforms and bodies of water;
but instead of colors, contour lines are
used to illustrate the elevation and
changes in the landscape of the earth
features.

38. 3. Thematic Map – More than the usual
details of lands and bodies of water, it
also includes some additional
information for the convenience of
travelers such as climatic condition in
the place, population density, economic
activity, historical trends, and political
boundaries.

40. 4. Political Map – This
map is intended to
describe the state and
national boundaries
of places.

42. 5. Climate Map – This describes the kind
of climate that can be expected by
travelers in the place of visit. Climatic
zones are scientifically determined
through measuring the amount of
temperature, rainfall or snow,
humidity, number of cloudy days and
other conditions in the place.

44. 6. Economic or Resource Map –
It determines the presence of
natural resources in the area
which are marked with specific
colors and symbols in the
Legend.

46. 7. Road Map – It is the most
common type of map that is widely
used by travelers. This specifies
the major highways and roads in
the area that travelers may tract to
arrive at the desired destination.

the earth features.

60. Waze and Google Map
are the examples of this
kind of Map.
