Purpose of a map key The purpose of a map key is to tell you the meaning of the symbols on a map. Map legends, aka map keys, are reliable visual guides that help you understand the features map. This guide provides necessary details regarding map keys, symbols, and examples. The key on a map interprets each symbol so that you can read and understand the map. A map legend or key is a visual explanation of the symbols used on the map. The map legend contains all the symbols (symbology) used in the map to help the reader understand what the polygons, lines, points, or grid cells represent. It typically includes a sample of each symbol (point, line, or area), and a short description of what the symbol means.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><figure> \t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.worksheeto.com\/postpic\/2013\/08\/map-key-legend-symbols_439929.png\" alt=\"12 Best Images of Using A Map Legend Worksheet - 4th Grade Map Skills ...\" style=\"width: 100%; padding: 5px; background-color: grey;\"><figcaption>12 Best Images of Using A Map Legend Worksheet &#8211; 4th Grade Map Skills &#8230; (Timothy Santos)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p> \t \t<strong>Map Legend Or Map Key<\/strong>. <strong>It presents commonly used symbols, such as the stars showing capital cities. The symbols used to designate features on the map don&#39;t have to follow the standards, but any deviations from these common symbols should be reflected in the maps legend, or else the maps designer risks confusing the reader of the map. Typically, map legends are placed in one of the four corners of the map so that they can be quickly referenced. Explore map reading to get your bearings. Maps also frequently have features that aren&#39;t exactly part of the map&#39;s legend or key, but provide additional information about the map.<\/strong> Map Legend Or Map Key. <\/p>\n<h3>Use the legend title to explain equations used to derive values (e.g., People per square mile) In the case where the legend is describing a key to symbology, as on a USGS topo map, then you are probably showing a lot of symbology and the solutions noted above won&#39;t work, in which case the legend is usually just called a &#34;Key&#34;. &#8211;
