Types of Maps – Physical and Political

Physical maps show the location and the topography, or shape of the Earth’s physical features. A study of an area’s physical features can help explain its historical development

Political maps shows the boundaries and locations of political units such as countries, states, and cities (often divided by color). A study of a political map gives you a context for the region.

Page 8: World Studies

Physical Maps Use shading and texture to show general relief

(difference in elevation, height, landforms). Landforms are physical features such as plains,

mountains, plateaus, and valleys. Show rivers, streams, lakes and other water forms.

Page 9: World Studies

Political Maps Many of the items on a political map are human-

made, or determined by humans rather than nature. Boundaries, capital cities, and roads. Might also show physical features such as

mountains and rivers.

Activity – After looking at the examples, what three words would you use to describe each type of map?

Page 11: World Studies

Thematic Maps – maps that provide a particular kind of information or a single idea

Qualitative Maps – use colors, symbols, lines, or dots to show information related to a specific idea.Examples in Atlas:Pg. 32-33Pg. 40-41

Flow-Line maps – use arrows to show the movement of people, ideas, or physical systems.

Examples in Atlas: Pg. 20-21 PG. 58-59

Activity: When would you use a qualitative map? A Flow-Line map?What three words would you use to describe each type of map?
