Tectonic Plates

100

These 4 words are what Geographers use to describe the value or meaning given to a location by humans. 

Spiritual, Cultural, Economic, Aesthetic. 

100

This type of landscape sees the Earth's surface rise dramatically, creating steep, peaked landforms; for example, the Victorian Alps. 

Mountain Landscapes

100
This mapping convention ensures that there is a defined boundary to the map that is being studied

Border

200

This form of liquid rock turns into lava when an eruption occurs. 

Magma

200

This phenomenon is the term used to describe how multiple towns or cities might spread out across a given landscape. 

Urban Sprawl

200

These landscapes are where human buildings and activities dominate; for example, the city of Melbourne

Urban Landscapes

200

This mapping convention creates a list of important information for the viewer, by labelling the meaning of all the little icons on a map.

Legend

300

This section of a volcano is where the Magma is stored prior to an eruption.

Magma Chamber

300

This Acronym is what we use to identify similarities and differences in a map.

PQE (Pattern, Quantify, Exception)

300

These landscapes are where the land meets the sea and the surrounding area; for example, Cape Woolamai on Philip Island. 

Coastal Landscapes

300

This mapping convention shows the viewer how big the surface area of a given map is, by giving a comparison to its actual size. 

Legend

400

These two alternating layers of a volcano are what cause it to grow in size. 

Lava Layer & Ash Layer

400

This sacred site was closed in the 2010's due to the erosion caused by humans walking across its surface. 

Uluru

400

These landscapes are there there is very little available water, limiting the growth of plans and diversity of animals; for example, the Little Desert National Park. 

Arid Landscapes

400

This mapping convention tells the viewer where the information on the map came from. 

Source

500

This hole in the top of the volcano is what bursts as the Volcano erupts. 

Vent

500

This phenomenon is the process of social and economic change that takes place as increasing numbers of people move from rural to urban areas

Urbanisation

500

These landscapes are where underground water dissolves limestone to create distinct landforms, such as cliffs and caves; for example, the Buchan Caves. 

Karst Landscapes

500

This mapping convention tells the viewer which direction on the map is north.
