A map is not a three dimensional representation of earth's surface. The best three dimensional representation of earth's surface is a globe or a topographical map.

Is it true that maps are three-dimensional representations of earths surface?

No, maps are two-dimensional representations of the Earth's surface. They show the location of features, such as countries, cities, rivers, and mountains, using symbols and colors to represent real-world objects. Three-dimensional representations are more commonly referred to as globes.

Why it is not possible to draw an accurate map?

It is not possible to draw an accurate map because the Earth's surface is a three-dimensional sphere, while maps are two-dimensional representations that distort the surface in some way, such as with shape, distance, or area. This distortion is inevitable due to trying to project a curved surface onto a flat plane.


What is a flat two dimensional surface of a three dimensional shape?

What represents earth three dimensional surface into dimensions?

The Earth’s three-dimensional surface is commonly represented in two dimensions through maps and globes. Maps use various projections, like the Mercator or Robinson projection, to depict the curved surface of the Earth on flat surfaces, while globes provide a more accurate representation of geographical features. These representations help visualize and understand spatial relationships, distances, and orientations on the Earth's surface.

Does a circle have a flat surface?

In geometry, a circle is a two-dimensional object, so it does not have a surface. Only three-dimensional objects have surfaces. A disc is a flat, circular three-dimensional object.
