What do you call the science of art and map making?

The science of art and map making is called cartography. It involves the creation and study of maps, combining artistic elements with geographical data to represent spatial relationships and information visually.


Why map making called a science?

Map making is considered a science because it involves the collection, analysis, and interpretation of geographical data to accurately represent the Earth's surface. It requires knowledge of cartography, geographic information systems (GIS), mathematics, and other disciplines to create maps that are informative and visually appealing. Additionally, map making often involves rigorous research, experimentation, and peer review to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the final product.


What is science of map making called?

The study and practice of making maps is called cartography. It builds on the premise that reality can be modeled in ways that communicate spatial information effectively. People who make maps are called cartographers.


What tools are needed to make a topographic map profile of a landform?

To make a topographic map profile of a landform, you would need a topographic map of the area, a ruler or straight edge for measuring heights, graph paper or plotting software, and a pencil for marking elevations on the profile. Additionally, you may need a protractor to measure angles if the landform has slopes or changes in gradient.


List down the different branches of science?

I don't recall ever seeing a schematic for science, but your suggestion is interesting. I'd divide natural science into the life sciences (biology) and material sciences (physics). Under physics I'd place cosmology, astronomy, geology, meteorology, and chemistry. Under biology I'd put botany, ecology, medicine, paleontology, etc. There is a lot of blurring and overlap, of course, such as in biochemistry, biomechanics, astrobiology, etc. Paleontology is about as much a science of rock, minerals, nuclear physics and geologic history as it is a science of biology.
