What is a map of a room drawn to scale called?
A plan.
What is the difference between plans and maps?
a plan generally works using a smaller scale while a map uses a larger scale as it generally covers larger areas. a plan is a true scale scale representation while a map is drawn such that some features on it cannot be drawn to scale. on a map many features are represented as symblos and generalization is carried out reasulting in changes in scale and displacement of features. e.g on a 1:1 million map, rivers and roads may be shown but they cannot be drawn to scale. a 5m road would be 0.005mm wide if drawn according to scale. plans tend to be for a single or few applications while maps cover a large vary of uses e.g in exploration, military, reacreation, geological, navigation e.t.c
Difference between plan and map in survey?
(a)A map is a visual representation of an area-a symbolic depiction highlighting relationships between elements of that space such as objects, regions, and themes. Plans are a set of two-dimensional diagrams or drawings used to describe a place or object, or to communicate building or fabrication instructions. Usually plans are drawn or printed on paper, but they can take the form of a digital file. (b) Although most commonly used to depict geography, maps may represent any space, real or imagined, without regard to context or scale; e.g. Brain mapping, DNA mapping, and extra-terrestrial mapping. Plans are often for technical purposes such as architecture, engineering, or planning. Their purpose in these disciplines is to accurately and unambiguously capture all the geometric features of a site, building, product or component. Plans can also be for presentation or orientation purposes, and as such are often less detailed versions of the former. The end goal of plans is either to portray an existing place or object, or to convey enough information to allow a builder or manufacturer to realize a design. (c)Many but not all maps are drawn to a scale, allowing the reader to infer the actual sizes of, and distances between, depicted objects. A larger scale shows more detail, thus requiring a larger map to show the same area. Plans are usually scale drawings, meaning that the plans are drawn at specific ratio relative to the actual size of the place or object. Various scales may be used for different drawings in a set. For example, a floor plan may be drawn at 1:50 (or 1/4"=1'-0") whereas a detailed view may be drawn at 1:25 (or 1/2"=1'-0"). Site plans are often drawn at 1:200 or 1:100 (d)To communicate spatial information effectively, features such as rivers, lakes, and cities need to be labeled. Over centuries cartographers have developed the art of placing names on even the densest of maps. Text placement or name placement can get mathematically very complex as the number of labels and map density increases. Therefore, text placement is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so cartographers and GIS users have developed automatic label placement to ease this process
Who will find maps useful?
Anyone wanting to plan a route, visit a place, understand the local countryside, measure how far is it from A to B, and so on - the list of those who find maps useful, is large.
What safely measures can be taken during tsunami?

Drawing to scale?
Drawing to scale means to draw real objects in their accurate sizes except they are reduced. A house plan is a common item that is drawn to scale. Model cars are another example of drawing to scale. The item is in proportion but smaller.
Is a basement floor plan required to make a basement?
If you are interested in building a basement, there are numerous factors you need to include. Having a basement floor plan is a good idea and is recommended by all professionals.
How do you Use Scale in a sentence?
You didn't say which meaning of the word you wanted to use. If you mean scale as in a device to measure weight, you could say "I stepped on the scale and prayed that I had lost weight."

If you mean scale as in to climb, you could say "We plan to scale Mount Baldy this weekend."
How do you use the 1 50 scale rule?
A 50 scale is used to make measurements on a construction plan. If a plan is said to be in 50 scale, then a length of one inch on the ruler is the equivalent of 50 feet on the plan.
How is a first angle auxiliary plan drawn?
