Scales of Analysis

  • Scales of Analysis: how a map is analyzed

  • Scale: relationship between the portion of Earth being studied and Earth as a whole

    • Examples:

      • Country color coded based on religion

      • City with supermarkets highlighted

      • Schools across a state

    • The size of the place (city vs country) and area of interest (religion, supermarket, schools) are various dimensions and scales of analysis
