What is a map scale?​

Answer 1

✦✧ANSWER✦✧

This simple concept is complicated by the curvature of the Earth's surface, which forces scale to vary across a map. Because of this variation, the concept of scale becomes meaningful in two distinct ways.

Answer 2

Answer:

Map scale refers to the relationship (or ratio) between distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground. For example, on a 1:100000 scale map, 1cm on the map equals 1km on the ground. ... We have an incomplete map and data coverage at 1:100000 and 1:50000 scales.

There are three main ways that scale is indicated on a map: graphic (or bar), verbal, and representative fraction (RF).
