Maps help us find places, but how are they created? Cartographers, or mapmakers, gather information from satellites, surveys, and GPS. They decide what the map will show, choose a scale, and simplify details to keep it clear. They draw roads, landmarks, and borders, adding colors and labels.
Some maps are printed on paper, while others are digital, allowing real-time updates. Thanks to technology, we now have interactive maps on our phones that guide us anywhere!
