What is one sentence for map projection?

Why are map important write in four point

Tems11 [23]

Answer:PS can get you from point A to point B but it does a poor job with helping you visualize where you are in relation to everything else.

Most people know how GPS works. It finds your location and you tell it where you want to go. GPS is very good at getting you to that next location but it doesn’t tell you anything about the places that you’re passing along the way.

There’s a reason why cross-country trips aren’t planned on a phone. The best route isn’t always the fastest route and you can’t pick your best route without knowing your relationship to all the places around you.

Maps support spatial thinking by helping children visualize where objects, places, cities, and countries are in relation to one another.

Spatial thinking has been linked to greater success in math and science. Children who develop robust spatial thinking skills will be at an advantage in our global and technological society.

As we start shaping their education and preparing them for the future, map reading skills help children gain proficiency in the principles of geography. Oh, the places you’ll go with the help of a map!

Maps Provide Safety in a World of Detached Humans

There have been multiple cases that deal with accidents related to GPS. A Cornell University study looked at GPS’s effect on drivers and concluded that GPS users “attend to objects in the paths they take toward their destination” but researchers also “found evidence for loss of environmental engagement…the process of interpreting the world, adding value to it, and turning space into place is reduced to a certain extent and drivers remain detached from the indifferent environments that surround them.”

Their conclusion: “GPS eliminated much of the need to pay attention.”

This applies to other aspects of our lives as well. The more we pay attention to the device, the less we pay attention to our surroundings. Maps, on the other hand, ground you to your surroundings. In this world, maps are the hero of the story and GPS will always be the sidekick

I think that is it safe to say (I mean by this: check if it's among your options) that both individual and international trade are voluntary exchange of goods -both parties have to agree on it without being forced to it. Also they should be mutually beneficial - otherwise the two parties would have have agreed!
