4. Map layout elements  Main map size and location  Map title and subtitle  What, where, and when  Brief but descriptive  Legend  No need to label it Legend.

13. Map scales  Map scale ratios  Dimensionless  Used with any linear measurement unit, such as feet, meters, or miles  Graphic scale, or “scale bar”  Graphic representation of map scale  Places a line on the map with ground distances marked, such as 10 miles, 20 miles, etc. 13 INF385T(28437) – Spring 2013 – Lecture 3
