1.1 Introduction to Maps
ENDURING UNDERSTANDING (Overall Concept)
- IMP-1 Geographers use maps and data to depict relationships of time, space, and scale.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE (What I Must Be Able to Do)
- IMP-1.A Identify types of maps, the types of information presented in maps, and different kinds of spatial patterns and relationships portrayed in maps.
ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE (Information I Must Know)
- IMP-1.A.1 Types of maps include reference maps and thematic maps.
- IMP-1.A.2 Types of spatial patterns represented on maps include absolute and relative distance and direction, clustering, dispersal, and elevation.
- IMP-1.A.3 All maps are selective in information; map projections inevitably distort spatial relationships in shape, area, distance, and direction.
