Unit 1: Geographic Sources
Name: Block: Unit 1: Geographic Sources Section 1: Matching B Map ___ Globe ___ Field Research ___ Photography ___ Charts & Graphs ___ Primary Source ___ Satellite Imagery ___ Computer Databases ___ GIS ___ Layering map software; useful for answering complex questions in geography (ie crime rates in an area) Flat representations of the Earth’s surface. Always distorted because it is 2D while the Earth is 3D. Good for showing changes over time in an area. Cheap and widely available. The best way to study cultures; actually studying and interacting with an object/population/geographical feature. Good for showing complex information in a simple way. A three dimensional representation of the Earth. Limited when trying to zoom in on areas. Getting information directly from the source it came from. Good for storing large amounts of information and sharing with other geographers. Used to show the Earth’s surface from space, which can show changes over time.
