For example, a thematic map could be based on topics such as population density, culture, agriculture, time zones, a census, or weather. Additionally, one common feature of a thematic map would be the colour incorporation. Specifically on these maps, the use of a variety of bright colours, particularly of the same shade, is to identify and draw attention to different aspects of the map. leilamoussawi1 https://padlet.com/hayleydiamond/iamw9m21slui6g8t/wish/1669388761 2021-08-05 00:21:17 UTC https://padlet.com/hayleydiamond/iamw9m21slui6g8t/wish/1669388761 Thematic maps. electrarotziokos https://padlet.com/hayleydiamond/iamw9m21slui6g8t/wish/1669410757 Thematic maps are designed to show information about a particular topic. Such as rainfall, population, culture etc. The main features on a thematic map would be colours. Colours help point out the main information.

My map shows the Percent Population from 2000 to 2010.
It had a legend to show where the population has grown the most and the least.

These maps are called physical maps because they show, label and identify physical features or bodies in a specific area.
These maps are large scale maps since they show a larger amount of detail compared to other maps.]]> 2021-08-05 23:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hayleydiamond/iamw9m21slui6g8t/wish/1670457130 political map xaviermottershead https://padlet.com/hayleydiamond/iamw9m21slui6g8t/wish/1670460917 A political map shows countries, country boundaries, capital cities, seas and oceans. These sorts of maps do not tend to show physical pastures like mountains, deserts etc. 

 In this map of Australia it shows everything a political map needs. It does not show physical features and includes all the capital cities, states, oceans etc. This is a perfect example of a political map.

They can inform you of practically anything but only inform you of one thing on that map. If the map's theme is pollution, that means the map will be only about pollution. There will usually be a key at the bottom with different colours meaning different things. E.g. Blue= 1,700-2,000 kg of pollution Orange= 200,000-260,00 kg of pollution. The colours from the key will also be on the map.

This map of Australia shows what the temperature will be on Friday afternoon. There is a key on the left bottom corner with colours that are on the map showing what colour is what temperature. This map only shows information about the temperature(it's theme), that's why it is a thematic map.

There cannot be a map giving information on 2 topics. All thematic maps will have a key and colour to show you for eg the most densely populated area in a state or country. Most thematic maps work like eg blue = hardly any people and red= densely populated areas. Other thematic maps can be used to look at weather patterns and cyclones by displaying the movement on a map to see where it's heading.

The two maps I have are both thematic maps yet they are very different. The first one is about temperature. it shows the temperature in the different parts of Africa. The second one is about the different languages. It shows this information using a key. The key codes different colours to where they are on the map representing the percentage of the language that is spoken

They can show natural and human features, but the most significant feature of a topographical map is the many lines that represent the height of the land. They are called contour lines. It is possible to see land forms like hills, valleys and mountains using this type of map.
