Data collection using maps

Maps are useful in documenting all kinds of fieldwork

Mapping is a key geographical skill and maps are an important element in geography fieldwork projects. You can download all kinds of maps from the internet, but it is sometimes better to draw and design your own maps for reports and you may gain additional credit for doing this.
