What is a planimetric map useful for?

A planimetric map is useful for representing the horizontal layout of features on the Earth's surface without depicting elevation or terrain relief. It shows various cultural and physical features such as roads, buildings, and bodies of water, making it ideal for urban planning, navigation, and land use analysis. These maps are helpful for anyone needing a clear overview of spatial relationships and land use in a specific area.


Which map presents only the horizontal positions of the features represented?

A topographic map shows the horizontal positions of features represented through the use of contour lines, spot elevations, and symbols to illustrate the shape and elevation changes of the land.


What is used to convert between the distance on the map and the actual distance in real life on a planmetric map?

A scale is used to convert between distances on a map and actual distances in real life on a planimetric map. The scale provides a ratio or proportion between a distance on the map and the corresponding distance in reality. By using the scale, you can accurately measure distances on the map and then convert them to real-world distances.


What map would be useful if you were traveling?

A location map or a road map would be most useful when traveling, as it provides important information about the area, such as roads, landmarks, and other points of interest. These maps can help navigate unfamiliar locations and plan efficient routes.
