1. Map ___B A. Layering map software; useful for answering complex questions in geography (ie crime rates in an area)
2. Globe ___F B. Flat representations of the Earth’s surface. Always distorted because it is 2D while the Earth is 3D.
3. Field Research ___D C. Good for showing changes over time in an area. Cheap and widely available.
4. Photography ___C D. The best way to study cultures; actually studying and interacting with an object/population/geographical
feature.
5. Charts & Graphs E ___
E. Good for showing complex information in a simple way.
6. Primary Source G ___
F. A three dimensional representation of the Earth. Limited when trying to zoom in on areas.
7. Satellite Imagery ___I G. Getting information directly from the source it came from.
8. Computer Databases ___H H. Good for storing large amounts of information and sharing with other geographers.
9. GIS ___A I. Used to show the Earth’s surface from space, which can show changes over time.
