Using your senses is called: Observation

An assumption made on observations is called an Inference

Grouping according to common characteristics is called Classification

Navigation – determining your position on Earth

Coordinate Systems use two points to show location.

These are lines of…?

Isolines connect points of equal value.

Isotherms – connect points of equal temperature

Isobars connect points of equal air pressure.

Contour lines connect points of equal elevation.

A real topographic map.

Depressions have hatchure lines.
