Different uses of maps and diagrams
General maps are often called base maps.
They show basic information about an area, like landforms, rivers and major roads.

Different uses of maps and diagrams
Thematic maps contain one or more themes. A theme can be any information that varies from place to place.
Themes include:
• population
• rainfall
• religion
• earthquake activity.

Route maps and street maps
Route maps and street maps are thematic maps that help people find their way from place to place.
Route maps cover larger areas than street maps.
A street directory is a common type of street map.

Distribution maps
A distribution map is a thematic map that highlights one or two features, and shows their spread over an area.
This earthquake activity map is an example of a distribution map.
It shows the distribution of major earthquakes that have occurred in Central and South America.

Mapping change over time
Two maps of the same place at different times can provide a useful tool for showing historical change.
What is the main geographic feature mapped here?
Answer – Land use
What is the time period between the two maps?
Answer – 150 years
