What is a small map scale?
The scale of a map tells you how much real distance is represented by the units of measurement.... 1 centimetre = 1 kilometre; 1 inch = 1 mile; etc. So a map which was 10 cm x 10 cm would represent an actual area of 10 km x 10 km. If that map hadn't enough room for all the details I wanted to see, I'd have to go for a larger scale map were 1 cm = 0.5 kilometres. In this case a 10cm x 10 cm map would have a 'real' area of 5 kilimetres by 5 kilometres.... one-quarter the area covered in the first map, but in larger details. Small scale map therefore refers to a map where a real distance is represented by a very small unit.
