Map interpretation is the process looking at the map in order for
us to be guided to a direction or place where we wanted to go
using the different symbols or elements of the map.
There are seven important components of a map. These
components will help you interpret a map.

1. Compass rose. This will give you the proper direction. This is
also called it “orientation.”

2. Title. It tells what the map is about.

3. Symbols. These are pictures instead of symbols.

4. Legend or Key. It explains the meaning of symbols and


colour.

5. Colour. It highlights the important information to help


interpret maps.

6. Scale. It shows the proportion of map to real life.

7. Grid Reference. These are intersecting lines to help locate


specific places on the map. In some maps, it is also called
“border.”
