what are the uses of maps and symbols
Answers
Explanation:
Maps often use symbols or colors to represent things, and the map key explains what they mean. Map keys are often boxes in the corner of the map, and the information they give you is essential to understanding the map. Symbols in the key might be pictures or icons that represent different things on the map.
Maps: In simple words maps are pictures of the earth's surface. They can be used as general reference to show landforms, political boundaries, water bodies, and the positions of cities.
Symbols: All communication (and data processing) is achieved through the use of symbols. Symbols take the form of words, sounds, gestures, ideas, or visual images and are used to convey other ideas and beliefs. For example, a red octagon may be a symbol for "STOP".
