Explanation:
There are three Components of Maps – distance, direction and
symbol.
DISTANCE
Maps are drawings, which reduce the entire world or a part
of it to fit on a sheet of paper. Or we can say maps are
drawn to reduced scales. But this reduction is done very
carefully so that the distance between the places is real. It
can only be possible when a small distance on paper
represents a large distance on the ground.
Therefore, a scale is chosen for this purpose. Scale is the
ratio between the actual distance on the ground and the
distance shown on the map.
For example, the distance between your school and your
home is 10 km. If you show this 10 km. distance by 2 cm on
a map, it means, 1 cm on the map will show 5 km. on the
ground. The scale of your drawing will be 1cm = 5 km.
Thus, scale is very important in any map. If you know the
scale, you will be able to calculate the distance between any
two places on a map.
When large areas like continents or countries are to be
shown on a paper, then we use a small scale. For example 5
cm. on the map shows 500 km. of the ground. It is called a
small scale map.
When a small area like your village or town is to be shown
on paper, then we use a large scale that is 5 cm. on the map
shows 500 metres only on the ground. It is called a large
scale map.
Large scale maps give more information than small scale
maps.
DIRECTION
Most maps contain an arrow marked with the letter ‘N’ at
the upper right hand corner. This arrow shows the northern
direction. It is called the north line.
