  1. Pants on the Ground

  2. Map Scales Scale refers to the relationship between the size of the map and the actual size of area that is mapped, or relative distance.

  3. If Scale is 1cm = 1 KmHow far is it from A to B (Use Ruler) A B B A A B

  4. Mapping

  5. Review Give coordinates for the following (latitude, longitude) Moon _____________,__________________ Heart _____________,__________________ Smiley face _____________________, ___________________ Diamond ______________________, ________________

  6. Largest Dog In the World

  7. Latitude is measured and from the South North Equator

  8. Longitude is measured and from the West East Prime Meridian

  9. LATITUDE ALTITUDE BASED ON THE ____________ OF _______________ DEMO POLARIS

  10. Samples

  11. What is the purpose of Topographical Maps? Shows elevation or layout of land

  12. Who uses topographic maps? the military miners police farmers

  13. Contour Interval? 25

  14. Contour Interval? 20 Elevation of "A"? 540 Elevation of "B"? 580

  15. Highest possible elevation? 619

  16. What do hachured lines show? areas of depression

  17. What are the rules concerning hachured lines? first hachured line has same elevation as previous contour line

  18. Which direction is the river flowing? ________ How many Hills? _______________ Contour Interval? _____________ Km from A to B __________________

  19. Can a river flow north? yes!

  20. Name two ways that you can determine which way a river flows on a topographic map. contour lines point upstream rivers flow downhill

  21. What are the steps to draw a topographic profile place a piece of paper between the points mark where every contour line touches the edge of the paper determine the elevation of each mark paper on the graph and mark the place the elevation of each contour line

  22. Using the map and chart below, construct a topographic map profile.

  23. Please match the contour map on the left with the profile on the right.

  24. Topographical Maps

  25. Close line =Steep Slope

  26. Contour lines bend upstream when crossing a river

  27. Depressions are shown by small marks (Hachur lines)pointing inward off the contour line

  28. How far is it to climb from Y to X ? ________________ What is the contour interval of this topographical map? _____________ Which side of the hill is the steepest? NW , NE, SW, or SE Label each contour line with it’s elevation. What is the highest possible elevation? _______________ How many hills are on this map? __________

  29. What is the contour interval of this map? __________ How many miles is it from A to B? _________ Which direction is Green River flowing? ____________ If you are traveling from B to A are you going uphill or downhill?

  30. Which one is steepest?
