What type of map is being shown?

Match the map type to the correct definitions

• Flowline Maps

• Feature lines that connect points of equal value, such as elevation (contour lines), temperature (isotherms), or rainfall (isohyets).

• Dot Maps

• Use dots to represent the occurrence or density of a phenomenon, like population distribution or disease outbreaks, with each dot representing a set quantity.

• Isoline Maps

• Distort the size or shape of geographic areas based on a particular data value, like population or economic output, rather than actual land area.

• Choropleth Maps

• Illustrate movement patterns such as migration, trade routes, or traffic flows. The width of the lines often indicates the volume or magnitude of movement.

• Cartograms

• Use different shades, colors, or patterns to show the distribution of a particular variable (e.g., population density, literacy rates) across defined regions.
