Map audiences
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

4. Map audiences Map use: Exploration Presentation
Audience: Trained analyst General public
Purpose: Visual thinking Communication
Advantages: Graphical Believable
Granularity: Fine Coarse
Symbols: Abstract Mimetic
Granularity – can be more classifications
Course – fewer classifications and bright colored hooks are needed

6. Map layout elements Main map size and location Map title and subtitle
what, where, and when
Legend
No need to label it Legend. Everyone will know what it is (this eliminates “chart junk”)
Data sources
Graphic scale

13. Lecture 3
Map scales
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

14. Map scales Map scale ratios Dimensionless
Used with any linear measurement unit, such as feet, meters, or miles
Example, 1:24,000
Representative fraction
1 inch on the map is 24,000 inches on the ground (or 2,000 feet)
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

15. Map scales Graphic scale Graphic representation of map scale
Places a line on the map with ground distances marked, such as 10 miles, 20 miles, etc.
