Explanation:

1. Physical maps - Maps showing natural feature of the earth such as mountains, plateaus, plains, rivers, oceans etc. are called physical maps.

2. Political maps - Maps showing cities, towns and villages and different countries and states of the world with their boundaries are called political maps.

3. Thematic maps - Some maps focus on specific information, such as roads, maps, rainfall maps, maps showing distribution of forests, industries etc. are known as thematic maps.

Answer:

Various types of maps are:

1. Topographical

Topographical maps stand out from the other offerings by showing detailed elevation, with contour lines helping to map the landscape. Ordnance Survey maps are arguably the best-known type of topographical maps, but thousands of other mapmakers have created detailed alternatives, and even if you can’t see specific landmarks – lakes or roads, for example – it’s still possible to work out your exact location by following the contours and checking out the landscape around you.

2. Thematic

Rather than attempting to map the landscape or help to show you where to go, thematic maps are designed instead to highlight information on specific topics. It could be anything from geology to population density or weather, and we’ve even seen thematic maps used to track the locations of whales.

3. Navigational Charts

Along with general reference and topographical maps, navigational charts are another invaluable tool when it comes to actually get around, whether you’re at sea or in the air. Maps for the ocean are typically referred to as charts, and the same applies to air navigation mapping. The charts tend to include information that’s important to avoid accidents – such as features in and around the water, like submerged rocks – along with any specific navigational aids.

4. Cadastral Maps  

Cadastral maps are a lot more specific, and although they’re widely used, there’s a good chance you won’t see one every day. The plans map out individual properties, offering details like boundary information when houses or land are surveyed, and can be joined together to create much larger cadastral maps. You’re likely to see a cadastral map when you get a house surveyed, and town planners will also deal with them a lot.

Physical map: A map of the locations of identifiable landmarks on chromosomes. The Physical distance between landmarks is measured in base pairs. The physical map differs from the genetic map, which is based purely on genetic linkage data.

Political maps are among the most widely used reference maps. They are mounted on the walls of classrooms throughout the world. They show the geographic boundaries between governmental units such as countries, states, and counties. They show roads, cities, and major water features such as oceans, rivers, and lakes.
