Hey! See, that is
India Gate and this is
Rashtrapati Bhawan.
And the long
road between
these is Rajpath.
Let's guess how
many kilometres
long Rajpath is.
My mother told me it is
2 km from Vijay Chowk
to India Gate.
On this map, it is about
4 cm. So 4 cm on the
map is the same as
2 km on the ground.
You are right!
See, it is written
at the bottom of
this map. Scale:
2 cm = 1 km

Children should understand the need for a scale. We need to discuss that when we show a
big area on paper, we have to reduce it by a fixed ratio everywhere, so that the relative
distances and positions remain the same.

FAQs on NCERT Textbook: Mapping Your Way - Mathematics for Class 5: NCERT

1. What is the importance of mapping in navigation?
Ans. Mapping plays a crucial role in navigation as it helps us understand the spatial relationship between different locations. It provides a visual representation of our surroundings, allowing us to plan routes, identify landmarks, and find our way from one place to another with ease.
2. How can I read a map effectively?
Ans. To read a map effectively, start by understanding the key or legend, which explains the symbols and colors used on the map. Then, identify the north direction to orient yourself. Pay attention to the scale to determine the distance between locations accurately. Finally, follow the lines, symbols, and labels to locate specific places or landmarks.
3. What are the different types of maps used for navigation?
Ans. There are several types of maps used for navigation, including topographic maps, road maps, nautical charts, and GPS-based digital maps. Topographic maps focus on the physical features of an area, road maps highlight roads and highways, nautical charts are used for marine navigation, and GPS-based digital maps provide real-time navigation guidance.
4. How do maps help in disaster management?
Ans. Maps are invaluable tools in disaster management as they help in planning and responding to emergencies effectively. They can be used to identify vulnerable areas, plan evacuation routes, locate emergency shelters, and coordinate rescue operations. Maps also assist in assessing the impact of disasters and determining areas that require immediate assistance.
5. Can maps be used for more than just navigation?
Ans. Yes, maps have various applications beyond navigation. They are used in urban planning to determine land use patterns, in environmental studies to analyze ecosystems, in archaeology to locate historical sites, and in social sciences to study demographic trends. Maps are powerful tools for visualizing spatial data and understanding the world around us in different contexts.
