Exercise 4- Lena Hong

This map was containing the information of the whole world, and the title of this pap was "The world physical" map , which as seen in the picture, shows all the continents and cities. This map was easy to read because all the continets/countries were divided into separate colours, which highlights all the details. On the other side of the map there is another map that only shows the elevation of the countires/water bodies. This page was not easy to read because the colours used were yellow-ish colours, and green, which I didn't know what it meant. The readability of this map was average; the front page was easier than the elevation page. but it would have been better if main cities were labled only, because with small letter and arrows, it was kind of confusing me, and it was hard to read the country name itself. Overall, I think the map was a success of conveying information, especially the lables and different colour outlines of the countries, but I think the size of the map is too big for tourists or bikers to carry, because it was hard for me to take a picture of the whole map.
