why do we use symbols and colours in a map give some examples in short
Answers
Answer:
Topographic maps have unique markings that make them technically useful on the trail. Colors and symbols add the detail unique to a topographic map. ... Colors stand out from the map and provide identification to many features such as vegetation and water. Colors represent natural and man-made features of the earth.

Answer:
To identify and to be able to read the map.
Explanation:
These colours and other symbols are usually presented on a map in a table called the 'key' or the 'legend'. Imagine, if you were to look at a thematic map. Would you be able to understand the different colours presented? No.
Now, imagine, if a map did not have any symbols. It wouldn't be 'readable' at all! So, based on purpose, the maps are divided into categories. Like for example, I used the word 'thematic'. These maps show temperature and types of land.
There are other things like the compass. If you don't have that, the map is basically useless.
So, just like that, all the parts of the map go hand-in-hand, and if you don't have even one piece, the map is pointless, and useless.
