Answer:
Yes a wall map of my neighborhood shall also have errors.
Explanation:
- Due to projections, the details such as distance, size, shape and many more are compromised in order to represent the area on a flat map.
- For this reason, the representation of a map of my neighborhood shall have similar errors.
- A cartographer might be able to preserve some information when having the map but cannot others, so there has to be an error or two as long as the map is represented on a flat surface or wall at a scale.
