Answer 2

Answer:

Maps show what the world looks like from above. They are very useful because they give information and show where places are. There are many different types of maps. These include street maps, road maps, atlases and ordnance survey (OS) maps. A map is simply a drawing or picture (in 2-D) of a landscape or area of a country (in 3-D). It could be anything from a sketch map for a visitor to find your school to a detailed map of a town centre or mountain range.
