1 Sheet Name (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The sheet
name is found in bold print at the center of the top and in the
lower left area of the map margin. A map is generally named
for the settlement contained within the area covered by the
sheet or for the largest natural feature located within the area
at the time the map was drawn.
2 Sheet Number (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The sheet
number is bolded in the upper right and lower left areas of the
margin and in the center box of the adjoining sheets diagram,
which is found in the lower right margin.
It is used as a reference number to link specific maps to
overlays, operations orders, and plans.
For maps at 1:100,000 scale and larger, sheet numbers are
based on an arbitrary system that makes possible the ready
orientation of maps at scales of 1:100,000, 1:50,000, and
1:25,000.
3 Series Name (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The map
series name is found in the same bold print as the sheet
number in the upper left corner of the margin.
,The name given to the series is generally that of a major
political subdivision, such as a state within the United States or
a European nation.
A map series usually includes a group of similar maps at the
same scale and on the same sheet lines or format designed to
cover a particular geographic area.
It may also be a group of maps that serve a common purpose,
such as the military city maps.
4 Scale (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The scale is found
both in the upper left margin after the series name and in the
center of the lower margin.
The scale note is a representative fraction that gives the ratio of
a map distance to the corresponding distance on the Earth's
surface.
For example, the scale note 1:50,000 indicates that one unit of
measure on the map equals 50,000 units of the same measure
on the ground.
5 Series Number (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The series
number is found in both the upper right margin and the lower
left margin. It is a sequence reference expressed either as a
four-digit numeral (1125) or as a letter, followed by a three- or
four-digit numeral (M661; T7110).
,6 Edition Number (Top Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The
edition number is found bolded in the upper right area of the
top margin and the lower left area of the bottom margin.
Editions are numbered consecutively; therefore, if you have
more than one edition, the highest numbered sheet is the most
recent.
This date is important when determining how accurately the
map data might be expected to match what you will encounter
on the ground.
A map is defined as - CORRECT ANSWER - >a graphic
representation of a portion of the Earth's surface drawn to
scale, as seen from above. It uses colors, symbols, and labels to
represent features found on the ground.
-The ideal representation would be realized if every feature of
the area being mapped could be shown in true shape.
-The purpose of a map is to provide information on the
existence, location, and distance between ground features,
such as populated places and routes of travel and
communication. It also indicates variations in terrain, heights of
natural features, and the extent of vegetation cover.
, -All operations conducted require maps; however, the finest
maps available are worthless unless the map user knows how
to read them.
Marginal Information - CORRECT ANSWER - >A map is
considered equipment. To use it properly, you should read the
instructions.
These instructions on the outer edges of the map are called
marginal information.
All maps are different so examine the marginal information on
each map carefully.
Marginal Information (Top Margin 1-6) - CORRECT ANSWER -
>The top margin of the map helps you to identify the specific
area covered as well as the age and scale of the map.
Marginal Information (Bottom Margin 7-14) - CORRECT
ANSWER - >This portion of the map includes information that
helps to interpret the map. It provides correlation between
actual terrain and man-made features and the map's
topographic symbols. Some information found in the bottom
margin is repeated from the top margin.
7 Boundaries (Bottom Margin) - CORRECT ANSWER - >The index
to boundaries diagram appears in the lower or right margin of
all sheets.
