Different maps are useful because they each show different kinds of information:
Climate maps give general information about climate and precipitation in a certain area. Precipitation levels are represented in different colors.
Economic/Resource maps feature the Natural Resources or economic society that impact an area.
Physical maps show the physical features of an area, such as mountains, rivers, and lakes.
Political maps do not show these physical features; instead, they indicate state and national boundaries, as well as capital and major cities.
Road maps show major highways and roads, airports, railroad tracks, cities, and points of interest in an area.
Topographical maps are much like physical maps, but these include contour lines to indicate the shape and elevation of an area.
