Explore how two-dimensional shapes are used to represent key landmarks and objects in maps. Use this PowerPoint to:

• compare the differences in aerial photographs, street view and satellite view of maps.
• Look at key landmarks and objects in photographs and represent them using 2D shapes. Use the shapes or draw function in PowerPoint to create a layout of the space. It includes two examples with transparent photos to help students visualise the shapes, as well as 2 examples with blank workspaces.

Please note – You will need to access Google Maps to insert photographs of your local environment for the comparison activity. This PowerPoint can be used in unison with the Mapping Out Worksheet.
