What is the size of an area on a map as compared with the area's actual size?
The size of an area on a map compared to its actual size is known as the scale of the map. Scale is typically represented as a ratio or a graphic scale, indicating how much the map has been reduced from the real world. For example, a scale of 1:10,000 means that one unit on the map represents 10,000 of the same units in the actual world.
