Answer:

3 Elements of Any Map. Some maps may contain more than this just basic information, but any map should contain these five elements.

1) First is your title. The title of your map should tell basic information about the map, such as the area represented. So you could have a map of the Whichita Falls city area, or you could have a map of Texas, or you could have a map of the United States, or you could have a map of your backyard. The map could be anything, but the title is going to tell you what or should tell you some basic information about the map and the basic area represented by that map.

2) The next element is the legend, which is also known as the key, and it explains what symbols that are used on that particular map represent, such as symbols for major landmarks. So you may see little peaks to equal mountains, or squiggly lines to equal rivers. Those would be symbols that you could find on the map. They stand for mountains or rivers, so you would know if you saw an area with little peaks, there would be mountains there, or an area with a little squiggle, that would be a river in that area.

3) The third element is the grid. Most commonly represents the geographic grid system, or latitude and longitude marks used to precisely locate specific locations. So on a big map or a map of an actual place, you would often have criss-crossing lines that are going to represent the latitude and longitude of your area in space. You may just have a map of your backyard split up like this, but then you could tell someone in this first square or the second square or the third square where they should find something. And sometimes your grid is set up with letters and numbers. So if I said that there was a tree in this square, you could say in cell C3 on your map, you can find a tree. So that is how the grid would work. But these would be your lines of latitude and your lines of longitude. Latitude is flat, longitude is long, up and down.
