I know its not cool….i don’t need you to be here to tell me its not funny….i will
stop now…totes inapprops… :D
3. Why is GIS useful?Why is GIS useful?
Think about all the things you can use google maps for.
It has options for:
• Weather – useful to builders working outdoors
• Traffic – great for taxi services, delivery firms to know
how long a journey will take them.
• Photographs – useful for tourists to see the area they are
visiting before they go.
The police layer crimes onto maps to show where the
most crime is taking place. Then CCTV cameras can
be installed and police officers will aim to visit these
areas more regularly.
4. SketchesSketches
• The exam board are not expecting you to be excellent artists.
• Sketches do not need to be perfect drawings however they must be
tidy, accurate and the main features must have been clearly
identified.
• Label all the features on your diagram and make sure your sketch is
suitably titled.
• If appropriate annotate your sketch with longer phrases and
descriptive comments.
• To keep your sketch clear,
write your labels around the
edge of the sketch and draw
arrows to the features they
describe.
6. Maps – measuring straight line distanceMaps – measuring straight line distance
• The scale of a map allows a reader to calculate the size, height and
dimensions of the features shown on the map, as well as distances
between different points.
• The maps you will be using in your GCSE exam will have a
scale of 1:50,000, i.e. 1 cm on the map represents 500 metres or
0.5 kilometres).
• If you are required to work out the
straight line distance (as the crow flies)
between two places, simply place your
ruler over both points and measure the
distance in-between, then convert into
kilometres by multiplying your answer by
0.5, i.e. 7 centimetres on the map equals
3.5km in real life.
7. Maps – measuring winding distancesMaps – measuring winding distances
• If you have been asked to workout the distance of a winding route (e.g. a
river or road) get a sheet of paper (or even the side of your exam) and place
the corner on your starting point.
• Rotate your paper until the side follows the route you want to take. When
the route bends away from the paper’s edge, mark the point on your sheet
and then turn the paper so that the side runs along the next part of your
path (1).
• Keep doing this until you reach the end of your route (2).
• Now place your paper against the scale line (3) or measure the distance
using a ruler and multiply by 0.5.

8. Maps – 4 figure grid references
• Ordnance Survey map are covered in a series of blue grid lines.
These grid lines can be used to pinpoint locations through a unique
number known as a grid reference.
• A four-figure grid reference is a handy way of identifying any square
on a map. Four figure references are useful if you’re trying to
describe the position of a large feature such as a forest or
settlement.
• Grid references are easy, as long as you remember that you always
go along the corridor before you go up the stairs.
9. Maps – 6 figure grid references
• If you want to pinpoint an exact place on a map, such as
a church or farm building, then you will need to use a six-
figure grid reference.
• The first step is to find the four-figure reference, now
imagine this square is divided up into 10 tiny squares
along the bottom, with 10 squares up the side.
• Still remembering to go along the corridor and then up
the stairs, estimate how far across and then up the
square the feature is.
10. Relief (height of the land) and contoursRelief (height of the land) and contours
• Relief is a term geographers use to describe the shape
and height of the land.
• OS maps use
two systems to
illustrate relief,
spot heights or
trig points and
contour lines.
Spot Height
Trig Point
Contours close
together = very steep
Contours further apart
= less steep
11. Relief (height of the land) and ContoursRelief (height of the land) and Contours
• A contour is a line drawn on a map that joins points of
equal height above sea level, i.e. every point on a 50 metre
contour line is 50 metres above sea level.
• Contours on OS maps
are coloured light brown.
The diagram shows the
link between the shape
of a hill and the contours
representing it on a map.
12. How to draw a cross sectionHow to draw a cross section
• Place the edge of a piece of paper along the route you wish to draw
a cross section of.
• Mark each time your paper crosses a contour line and record its
height.
• Place you’re paper on a piece of graph paper and draw a vertical
scale. Each time your paper crossed a contour line plot the correct
height.
• Join up the crosses with a line to show the shape and height of the
land.
• You may be asked to add the location of important features such as
rivers or roads.

16. Interpreting MapsInterpreting Maps
The key to success on a describe question is to support general
descriptive statements with map evidence.
What to look for when describing:
• Vegetation - The OS maps used in our exam
(1:50,000) only contains a minimal amount of
vegetation data. Woods, orchards, parkland
and marshes are shown, but most of the map
is likely to be white. In most cases these white
areas will be farmland, look for the presence
of farms (abbreviated to fm) to prove this.
• When identifying large areas, such a forest,
use four-figure grid references, however, more
accurate six figure references will be needed if
you’re highlighting farm buildings.
17. Interpreting MapsInterpreting Maps
The key to success on a describe question is to support general
descriptive statements with map evidence.
What to look for when describing:
• Communication – In your exam,
communication refers to the region’s transport
networks. Look out for important routes, such
as dual carriageways and motorways, as well
as local patterns. In most cases road and rail
networks will be denser and more complex in
urban areas.
• When describing communication networks
use road names (e.g. M4 or B3456), locate
larger areas with four-figure references and
individual stations and foci points with six-
figure references.
18. Interpreting MapsInterpreting Maps
The key to success on a describe question is to support general
descriptive statements with map evidence.
What to look for when describing:
• Settlements – If asked to describe the
distribution of settlements, try and think of
each settlement as a just dot. Include villages,
towns and cities but ignore minor hamlets and
farmhouse clusters, as we don’t want to over-
complicate our answer.
• Now look at the pattern of dots and try to
identify any relating factors. Settlements are
usually grouped in river valleys, on coastlines
or along transport routes. Don’t forget to
support any explanation with map evidence.
19. Interpreting MapsInterpreting Maps
The key to success on a describe question is to support general
descriptive statements with map evidence.
What to look for when describing:
• Human activities – OS maps provide little
information about human activity. Occasionally
works and industrial sites are labelled, but in
most cases we have to make educated guesses
about the economic activities present within a
region, e.g. we know from experience that large
towns and cities tend to have important retail and
commercial functions.
• Tourism is perhaps the easiest economic activity
to identify as attractions and facilities are clearly
highlighted through the use of blue symbols.
20. Site and SituationSite and Situation
• The SITE of a settlement means the physical characteristics of the
place. When describing the site refer to slope, attitude and
vegetation.
Shepton Mallet is built on the south facing slops of the Mendip Hills.
There is an area of drained marsh land to the south known as the
Somerset Levels. The town itself is built gently sloping land and is
surrounded by fertile land used for sheep farming.
• The SITUATION of a settlement is its location in relation to other
places. When describing the situation refer to transport links and the
position of other settlements.
Shepton Mallet is situated approximately 3 miles East of Wells and is
approximately 30 miles south of the larger city of Bristol. Shepton
Mallet is build around the cross roads of the A37 and the A361.
21. Shape of SettlementsShape of Settlements
• 1. Nucleated settlements are villages and
towns where the buildings are closely
clustered, usually around a central feature
such as a village green, crossroads or
market square.
• 2. Linear settlements are strung out in a thin
line, often following a road or squeezed into
a narrow valley.
• 3. Dispersed villages are made up of small
groups of houses and outlying farmers
spread over a considerable distance.
