|
||||
| show | a thematic map that uses tones or colors to represent spatial data as average values per unit area.
🗑
|

| cognitive map | show 🗑
|
||||
| complementarity | show 🗑
|
||||
| connectivity | show 🗑
|
||||
| contagious diffusion | show 🗑
|
||||
| coordinate system | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | the decrease in interaction between two phenomena, places, or people as the distance between them increases.
🗑
|
||||
| show | thematic maps that use points to show the precise locations of specific observations or occurrences, such as crimes, car accidents, or births.
🗑
|
||||
| expansion diffusion | show 🗑
|
||||
| friction of distance | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | a type of map projection that maintains the accurate size and shape of landmasses but completely rearranges direction such that the four cardinal directions-north, south, east, and west- no longer have any meaning.
🗑
|
||||
| show | the actual shape of the earth, which is rough and oblate, or slightly squashed; the earth's circumference is longer around the equator then it is along the meridians, from north-south circumference.
🗑
|
||||
| show | a mathematical formula that describes the level of interaction between two places, based on the size of their populations and their distance from each other.
🗑
|
||||
| hazards | show 🗑
|
||||
| hierarchical diffusion | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | the line of longitude that marks where each new day begins, centered on the 180th meridian.
🗑
|
||||
| show | the supplier who is closer to the demanding place gets the intervening opportunity. (see pg. 98 barron's)
🗑
|
||||
| show | map line that connects points of equal or very similar values.
🗑
|
||||
| show | a relatively small ratio between map units and ground units. large-scale maps usually have higher resolution and cover much smaller regions than small-scale maps.
🗑
|
||||
| latitude | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | law that states that people will be drawn to larger cities to conduct their business because larger cities have a wider influence on the hinterlands that surround them.
🗑
|
||||
| location charts | show 🗑
|
||||
| longitude | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | a mathematical method that transfers the earth's sphere onto a flat surface. it can be used to describe the type of map that results from the process of projecting. all map projections have distortions in either area, direction, distance, or shape
🗑
|
||||
| mercator projection | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | a line of longitude that runs north-south. all lines of longitude are equal in length and intersect at the poles
🗑
|
||||
| show | an east-west line of latitude that runs parallel to the equator and that marks distance north or south of the equator.
🗑
|
||||
| show | a cylindrical map projection that attempts to retain the accurate sizes of all the world's landmasses
🗑
|
||||
| show | a map that displays individual preferences for certain places
🗑
|
||||
| prime meridian | show 🗑
|
||||
| proportional symbols map | show 🗑
|
||||
| reference map | show 🗑
|
||||
| relative distance | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | the position of a place relative to places around it.
🗑
|
||||
| show | the diffusion of ideas, innovations, behaviors, and the like from one place to another through migration.
🗑
|
||||
| resolution | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | projection that attempts to balance several possible projection errors. it does not maintain completely accurate area, shape, distance, or direction, but it minimizes errors in each.
🗑
|
||||
| show | the ratio between the size of an area on a map and the actual size of that same area on the earth's surface
🗑
|
||||
| site | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | the relative location of a place in relation to the physical and cultural characteristics of the surrounding area and the connections and interdependencies within that system; a place's spatial context
🗑
|
||||
| small-scale | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | spatial diffusion refers to the ways in which phenomena, such as technological innovations, cultural trends, or even outbreaks of disease, travel over space.
🗑
|
||||
| show | when a trait of one culture prompts invention or innovation in another.
🗑
|
||||
| thematic map | show 🗑
|
||||
| time-space convergence | show 🗑
|
||||
| topographic maps | show 🗑
