Question

Reading Resource Maps

You can compare the location of resources on a resource map with information on other types of maps, such as political, climate, or population density maps. This allows you to easily understand how the distribution of natural resources influences, or is influenced by other factors. You can also get an idea about a place’s economic activities and the people’s standard of living.
To read a resource map, you first need to identify the geographic area shown on the map. Some resource maps may include small areas such as a city or state. Others may include several countries or regions. Then look at the map legend to understand all colors, symbols, and patterns used on the map. Study the map to determine what resources are predominant in each area on the map. Are some resources concentrated in a particular place? Finally, compare the map to other maps showing physical features, climate, and natural vegetation of the area. Draw conclusions about the interaction of humans with the environment.
