Thank you for your wonderfully informative overview. G'day mate! Cheers from Newcastle Australia 🇦🇺
@@paulbridgman3437 thanks really appreciate it!
Great lecture, I loved it!
Thank you! Appreciate your comments
I really love these lectures ❤, keep it up
Thank you I appreciate it! I will make more
I am confused about the legend vs key. Legend being more generic and key being more precise. The example in the video seems reversed 5:29. The key for example basketball/tennis seems like it would be more generic vs the legend which shows that actual basketball icon. That seems more precise.
Hi thanks. It's not about the symbol itself, but what feature(s) it is defined to represent, a unique feature or a generic category of features. Either way the symbol could be just a basketball. For example, a basketball symbol could be defined to mean only Madison Square Garden, a single famous basketball arena, and would be part of a key. The basketball symbol could be defined to mean basketball courts in general, a generic category. So it's not about the symbol itself but how you define it, because theoretically a given symbol could be defined as anything the cartographer wants it to mean (even if it seems to make no sense).
Thank-you for the video. It is full of great information.
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Thanks, it was so helpful
Great thanks for the comment glad it helped
Clear explanation of cartography. You really nailed it sir
Thank you!
I enjoyed watching this video. And as a Cartographer and a map maker, you really helped elaborate on some key things which I got a better understanding thankyou very much sir!
Thanks and thanks for watching, I appreciate your comments.

Very good narration, I make my undergrad students watch it before lecture. Thank you...
Thank you!
Question: are there any maps that have true north?
You mean where the longitudes all converge together at true north on the map like they do in the real world right? A planar/azimuthal map will show all the longitudes converging at the pole.
@@robertthornett great thank you. Do you have any studies or videos on that? I just subscribed.
I don't but you could look for videos on map projections and geodesy@@farmerfox3332
Excellent,my 2 hours stupid class <<< ur lectures
What is the thickness of ozone layer in startosphere
The Earth you live on isn't spinning . The bible says nothing about movement because the Earth doesn't move, revolve or rotate. It's perfectly still. We inhabit a motionless realm covered by an impenetrable dome. We use gas pressure to debunk space that directly represents the heliocentric model. Space is a direct violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Using science to disprove the heliocentric model is the best way to get people to learn the truth. If you believe in a globe earth, outer space travel, or virus transmission.... YOU ARE NOT AWAKE
Great video and loved all the pics and diagrams.
Thanks so much, your videos are very informative.
Good video. Bet you could make some high end videos with some help on graphics (though the map was helpful).
Awesome
Yeah i would dig a series on the geographic features of other countries!
Good idea I will work on it
@@robertthornett Maybe Chile next !!!
This was great fun to learn. The pictures really helped make the learning solidify!
Thanks for this very informative video.
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Very interesting content and the graphic is great. I'd like to see more videos like this of other countries or regions, if you're interested in making them.
Thanks I appreciate your feedback. What countries are you interested in?
@@robertthornettI like learning about them all, but being an American the ones nearest me probably have the most likelihood of affecting my actions. So anything in the Americas is awesome, thanks!
Amazing information. Much appreciated. :)
