What is another name for a physical map?
A topographic map shows the elevation changes in mountainous regions. It uses contour lines, which are lines that connect points of equal elevation, to represent the varying heights and slopes of the terrain. These maps provide a detailed depiction of the physical characteristics of the land, including mountains, valleys, and other features.
One map projection cannot accurately represent the entire Earth's surface because it involves the process of transforming a three-dimensional object onto a two-dimensional surface. Different map projections prioritize certain characteristics, such as preserving shape, area, distance, or direction, but it is impossible to maintain all of these properties accurately at the same time. Therefore, different map projections are used depending on the purpose, area of focus, or intended use of the map.
