It's the relationship between the paper distance and the distance in the real world
T The map is drawn to scale.
it means the map measurements will coordinate with the measurements of the map location.
The map scale represents the ratio of the map to the real thing. For example, a map scale might say that 1 inch equals 1 mile. That would mean that every inch on the map represents a mile for the real thing.
A scale of 1:24 000 on a map means that things shown on the map are actually 24000 times bigger than they are on the map.
The legend of a map shows what the symbols on the map mean and sometimes the scale is also indicated there.
it means that the map is not like a map that IS drawn to scale. Instead of being accurately sized, it may use different scales to highlight certain features.
It is drawn to full size
The legend of a map shows what the symbols on the map mean and sometimes the scale is also indicated there.
"Not to scale" on a map means that the features and distances shown on the map are not accurate or proportional to their actual size or distance in the real world. This disclaimer is used when the map is a simplified representation for general reference rather than precise measurement or navigation.
A bar scale- helps you find the distance between two places on a world map.
Assuming you mean scale. There is no miximum. However a scale of 1:1 or larger would be pointless.
The map needs a scale so that distances on the map can be worked out.
