Consider the different types of special-purpose maps, such as those with details about geography, environment, climate, physical
features, economic opportunity, etc. What types of information can population maps tell us when compared to other special-purpose maps? Respond in a paragraph of three to five sentences.
Sample response: When you compare population maps with other special-purpose maps, you can learn why people live in a particular area. For example, by comparing a population map to a map showing the location of natural resources, you can infer why more people live in certain places. Job opportunities and natural resources may encourage or discourage people from living in certain areas.
The population map would tell us the preferred environment of the people. If a population map was laid upon a geographical map, it would show which features are more habitable or supportive for human life. Similarly, if it was laid upon a climate map, it would show which climates the people preferred whether for pleasure or occupation.
