There are many different types of maps, and every different type of map is specialized to representing something specific, thus making it easier for the reader of the map to come to information.

Explanation:

There are numerous types of different maps. Each type of map has been created for a particular reason, or rather to represent only certain things. The reason as to why the maps have been specialized is so that the readers of the maps are able to come to  the information they are interested in or looking for.

Some types of maps are:

  • physical maps
  • topographic maps
  • hydrological maps
  • political maps
  • climate maps
  • biogeographic maps etc.

The physical maps are maps that specifically represent the physical features in the presented area. On them, we can find valleys, hills, plateaus, mountains, water bodies. The hydrological maps are maps that have their focus on the bodies of water, thus they represent bodies of water, lakes, oceans, rivers, swamps. The biogeographic maps are maps that focus on the areas in which particular animals or plants live, or communities of organisms.
