•Kaart / Map:
‘n Prent of voorstelling van die aarde se oppervlakte / A picture
or representation of the earth’s surface
Dit toon hoe plekke ten opsigte van afstand, rigting en grootte
met mekaar verband hou / It shows how places are related to
each other in distance, direction and size
•Simbole / Symbols:
Word getoon in ‘n sleutel op die kaart / Are shown in a legend on
the map
New York 4,496KM

afstand op die grond / The ratio of a distance on the map to the
actual distance on the ground
Kaarte het of ‘n verhoudingskaal of ‘n lynskaal / Maps have either
a ratio scale or a line scale
•Verhoudingskaal / Ratio scale:
1:50 000 – 1 cm op die kaart = 50 000 cm (0,5km) in werklikheid
/ 1:50 000 – I cm on the map = 50 000 cm (0,5km) in reality
•Lynskaal / Line scale:
Om die afstand tussen 2 punte op die kaart te bereken / To
calculate the distance between 2 points on a map

calculated in relation to the UTC
Manila 11,759KM
UTK is gebaseer op die plaaslike standaardtyd van die 0° - lengtelyn /

UTC is based on the local time of the 0° line of longitude
Lande na Oos se tye is later as die UTK tyd / The time of countries to the
East is later that the UTC time
Lande na Wes se tye is vroeër as die UTK tyd / The time of countries to
the West is earlier than the UTC time
Suid-Afrika lê op die +2 tydsoneen Londen lê op die 0 tydsone, ons is
dus 2 ure voor Londen / South Africa lies on the +2 time zone and
London lies on the 0 time zone, we are therefore 2 hours in front of
London
New York lê op die -5 tydsone (SA op +2), NY is dus 7 ure agter SA /
New York lies on the -5 time zone (SA on +2), therefore NY is 7 hours
behind SA
