Plans & Maps | Difference | AnswerMate by Engineer Z

Question || What is the difference between Plans & Maps? 

Answer:

i). Both are the graphical representation of the features on a horizontal plane. 

ii). Plan is a large scale representation whereas, Map is a small scale representation. 

As stated in the definition of surveying the objective of measurements is to show relative positions of various objects on paper. Such representations on paper is called plan or map. 

A plan may be defined as the graphical representation of the features on, near or below the surface of the earth as projected on a horizontal plane to a suitable scale.

However, since the surface of the earth is curved and that of the paper is plane, no part of the earth can be represented on such maps without distortion. If the area to be represented is small, the distortion is less and large scale can be used. Such representations are called plans. If the area to be represented is large, small, scales are to be used and distortion is large. Representation of

Introduction to Surveying | Surveying | Part I

Introduction:

• Surveying may be defined as the method of making measurements of the relative positions of, natural & man-made features on earth’s surface and the presentation of this information either graphically or numerically.
• The commonest methods of presentation are by means of a plan or map.
• Both plans and maps are the graphical representations of the features on a horizontal plane.
• Plan is a large scale representation whereas man is a small scale representation.
• Height information can be added either as spot heights, which are individual heights of points, or as contours which give a less detailed but better visual representation of the area.
