What is a map line connecting two points that have the same age?
isochronic lines.
The intersecting parallel meridian lines in a globe or map?
Meridians are not parallel. Apart from that, what is the question?
What are the 4 ways in which maps can be distorted?
A map can be distorted by shapes, sizes, lines of latitude and longitude and politics,
What does grid location?
A grid reference system, also known as grid reference or grid system, is a geographic coordinate system that defines locations in maps using Cartesian coordinates based on a particular map projection. Grid lines on maps illustrate the underlying coordinate system.
If A pair of numbers which tell a location on a map what is it called?
latitude and longitude Co-ordinates
What are the imaginary lines on the globe and map?
The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
Longitude on a map?
That's the vertical lines.
Do you read horizontal lines on a map first or vertical when divided into squares?
Vertical first.
Does longitude line run vertical?
Yes. Longitude lines on a map are vertical and latitude lines are horizontal. But it could be the other way around too. It depends on how you hold your map.
What is a series of crisscrossing lines on a map identified by letters and numbers?
It is called a grid system (or map coordinates), and is used to identify locations on the map. It is made of latitude and longitude lines. The latitude lines are also called parallels and they run west to east. Longitude lines, also known as meridians, run north to south.
In which direction do parallel lines go on a map?
It depends on the scale of the map. On a map of the world or a continent, the parallel lines will generally go horizontally across the map - East to West. For a large scale map, showing a small country or a local area, the vertical lines (North - South) will also be shown as parallel.
What is the lines running up and down the earth called?
The imaginary lines running from north to south on a map are called longitude.
What is the type of map uses horizontal and vertical lines to locate places?
grid,atlas
What is the difference between longiltude and latitude?
Longitude are the vertical lines found in a map or globe while latitude are the horizontal lines.
What is the set of horizontal and vertical on a map?
Those lines indicate latitude and longitude, a means of measurement.
What does the grid of vertical and horizontal lines on the map represent?
The grid of vertical and horizontal lines on a map represents latitude and longitude coordinates that help in locating specific points on the map using a system of geographic coordinates. These lines intersect at regular intervals to form a grid that aids in navigation, measuring distances, and determining exact locations on Earth's surface.
What is another name for mederians?
"Meridians" are the long lines on a globe or map that help pinpoint coordinates. Meridian lines are also called longitudinal lines.
