Introduction to OS maps What is an OS map? How do I use an OS map? How is an OS map different to an Atlas?

Comparing an OS map with an Atlas  Copy and complete the table below to show the similarities and differences between an atlas and an OS map. Remember to use the language of comparison e.g. however, whereas, on the other hand Similarities between an OS map and an Atlas Differences between and OS map and an Atlas e.g. An atlas is a book of maps whereas an OS map is usually one single map

Four Figure Grid References In which grid square is the symbol? Activity 1-4 Four Figure grid references - Hull

Symbols on OS maps

Scale  You can measure the size of a place from a map by using the map scale. The scale is written as a figure called a representative fraction (RF). For example, a RF of 1: shows that one unit on the map represents of the same units on the ground.  5 cm on a ruler on a 1: scale map would be:  5cm x (map scale) = cm = metres = 2.5 km

Six Figure Grid References Along the edge of a piece of scrap paper draw a line the length of the grid square - then divide it by ten - number as below 027_ _ _
