Question
Which map provides detailed information?
Solution 1
Large-scale maps provide detailed information on which we can represent any part of the earth like village, town, country, state, etc.
Solution 2
The map which provides detailed information is the large-scale map. The maps can be classified into various types based on the type of scale used, the region presented, and other features. A large-scale map is used for presenting different parts of the earth such as towns, villages, cities, and other localized areas. The large-scale maps are basically used to present a small area but the information mentioned on the large-scale maps are very minute and very detailed. Therefore, large-scale maps are very helpful in providing a close view of a small area and are used for various purposes for finding the directions that are navigation and they provide details regarding every minute feature like a small river or stream present in the area. The large-scale map is considered to be more accurate and reliable as they provide more detailed data and information regarding the location. For a detailed study of any area, large-scale maps are therefore a preferred choice.
