Measuring distance between locations
Find the height difference of the land
?Finding your location ?
Maps
The Survey of India is India’s central engineering agency who are in charge of mapping and surveying
They can be used by everyone. People who are illiterate or who different languages can use them.
A map is a visual representation of an area
Get information of the land of an area
What are maps used for? Discuss with a friend and think of 4 uses of a
map:

Scale
There is a fixed relationship or Scale between an actual distance and that shown on a map
Maps are scaled down so that they fit on the available paper or screen. When scaling down a map, every part of the map is scaled by the same amount.
There are 2 methods to calculate this scale:
![Page 12: 1 maps & plane table surveying. introduction to maps](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102323/58f314001a28ab1b138b456f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
This is easy to use and still counts if the map is enlarged or reduced. There is a measurement drawn at the bottom of the map which represents a certain distance, all other distances can be worked out using this.
The Graphical Method:
This is when the real distance is reduced to a smaller one using a fixed calculation:1:25,000 = 1cm to 25,000cm or 1cm to 250m
1,10,000=1cm to 10,000cm or 1cm to 100m
The Fractional method
