Why isit there? With new technology, it is quite easyto determine your location very precisely. A GlobalPositioning System (GPS) receives signals from an orbiting satellite. Instantly, you receive your position in latitude, longitude,and elevation. You know exactly where you are on Earth. Thelocational information given by GPS can be stored in computers.Later, this information can be turned into maps. Using GPS, it isnow possible to know the exact location (within a few metres) ofany spot on Earth. GPS is very useful for many things, like boatersafety and hiking. GPS is also used to help towns and cities locatefeatures on maps exactly. This type of locational information hasmade mapping more precise. Humans have come a long wayfrom the methods of early explorers to find their positions andmake maps of areas they encountered.KEY VOCABULARYabsolute locationboundariescharacteristicsclimatecoordinate systemdividedrainage basineastingsecozoneEl Niñofunctional characteristicsgeologic regionsGlobal Positioning System(GPS)gridhuman characteristicslandform regionslatitudelocationlongitudenatural forcesnorthingsphysical characteristicsphysical regionsregionrural regionssoil regionstime zonesurban regionsvegetationwilderness regionsYou are atLongitude 70 WLatitude 40 NGPS was first used bythe military to helparmies pinpoint positions.It’s now used by sailors,mapmakers, surveyors,and others.

C H A P T E R 1 : Place and LocationWhere Are You Exactly?There are many types of maps. Some ofthe most common are provincial road maps street maps topographic maps that showsurface features in detailDifferent grid systems are usedto find the locations of places onmaps. A road map usually uses a letter/number system to help you find locations. Topographic maps use referencesystems such as the six-figure grid coordinate system of eastings and northings.Latitude and LongitudeMaps and globes are divided by imaginary lines that run east and west, andlines that run north and south.Figure 1.2Compare this map to amodern map of LakeWinnipeg and area. Didthis mapmaker do a goodjob? Are there any errors?On this map, where isWinnipeg located?NEL East–west lines are called lines of latitude. They arealso called parallels. Latitude is measured in degrees (symbol ) north orsouth of the Equator. The Equator is the line at 0 latitude. Latitudes are numbered from 0 to 90 North andfrom 0 to 90 South. The two poles are the highest latitudes. Imaginary north–south lines are called lines oflongitude; they are also called meridians. Longitude is measured in degrees east or west of thePrime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is the line at 0 longitude. Longitudes are numbered from 0 to 180 East andfrom 0 to 180 West. Longitude lines meet at both poles.5
6U N I T 1 : Investigating GeographyAbsolute LocationIt is important to be able to locate places precisely. We needto be able to give the absolute location of a spot on Earth.When natural resources are found, the absolute locationmust be determined. The absolute location makes theresources the property of one country and not another.Suppose oil is found along the border of two countries witha clearly defined boundary. It is important to know exactlywhere the oil field lies to determine who owns it.Oil was discovered in the Gulf of Mexico. Part of the Gulfbelongs to the United States. Part belongs to Mexico. It wasvery important to find out how much of the oil was in theUnited States and how much was inMexico. Canada and the United States dispute who has the right to fish for salmon inparts of the Pacific Ocean. They need toknow the absolute locations of the boundaries between the states of Washingtonand Alaska with the province of BritishColumbia. Absolute location affects tradeand economic growth. It is also importantto help resolve conflictbetween groups, companies, or countries.Figure 1.3What other informationcan you get from a roadmap besides routes?Figure 1.4Find this section ofCanada on a full map.Figure 1.5What is the main featureon this map?NEL
C H A P T E R 1 : Place and LocationDoes the Place MakeSense?There are many reasons why places are locatedwhere they are. Physical characteristics of the areaaffect where places are located. It is important toconsider the landforms. Are there hills, ridges, orvalleys? Bodies of water are also important. Is therea lake or a river nearby? Well-drained soil makes abetter location for a place than soil that is poorlydrained. Vegetation, weather, and climate alsoaffect where places are located. Is the area forested, or is it grassland? Is it cold or hot, wet or dry?It’s Your WorldFigure 1.6Why do you think anyonewould build a househere?Figure 1.7A village clings to the edgeof Naervoy Fiord, Norway.Why do you think peopledecided to settle here?NELThink about setting up a colony on the moon.You want to be able to have all the essentialthings for your life at your new lunar site.

8U N I T 1 : Investigating GeographyOther places were chosen for their location based on humancharacteristics. People tend to locate where there are other people. Large cities attract people. If there is a river or lake, communities tend to spread along the riverbank or the lakeshore.People tend to live with people of a cultural background similarto their own. Religious reasons can also affect where peoplechoose to live. Some people want to live near the centre of theirfaith, like Jerusalem or Mecca.Locations for places like towns, farms, or factories arechosen because of distinctive human and physical characteristics. These different characteristics allow us todistinguish places from each other.Figure 1.8The Blue Mosqueis a holy site forMuslims.1. Think about your community. Why is it located where it is? What physical andhuman characteristics affect its location?2. Think about the activities in your life. How could GPS be useful in your life?3. Imagine you are the ruler of a country.

Your schoolyard is a region.Your town or city is a region. Your homehas regions in it. It has different spaceswhere you eat, sleep, relax, and work.Each is defined by a certain set of sharedfeatures or characteristics.Regions are areas used in the study ofgeography. We organize the world intospaces and places called regions. Thismakes the investigation of physical andhuman patterns easier and more understandable.

C H A P T E R 1 : Place and LocationRegions and ChangeA region can be defined by its physical characteristics. Thesecould be soil, type of terrain, or the amount of precipitation.Another way to define a region is by its human characteristics —religion, language, or culture. A third way is by its functionalcharacteristics. The ways we use a region, such as for farming orfor industry, fall into this group.Figure 1.17What is the most importantphysical region in your area?Physical RegionsPhysical regions, such as the Himalayas(a mountain region), or the Sahara (adesert region), are defined by theirphysical characteristics.

The climatic conditions of a region affectthe types of vegetation that can grow there. The climate and vegetation affect the soils that develop. A specific climatic regionwill produce a specific vegetation region. In turn, the vegetationregion makes a specific soil region.Soil regions have similar patterns to geologic, landform, andclimatic regions. A polar region has a cold, dry climate — a colddesert.

They can share physical and human features. A region could be defined by plains (physical) and farms(human). When we combine natural features and human activities in a particular area, we create a region called an ecozone.Figure 1.23The Interior Plains ofNorth America areecozones. They areimportant agriculturalareas.The Riviera region along the north Mediterranean seacoastis an ecozone. It includes parts of several countries (politicalregions). These parts all have beaches and coastal mountains.They also have a climate that is generally warm and dry all thetime (physical region). Similar kinds of crops are grown — grapesand olives (vegetation region). It has summer year-round, so thearea has become popular for holidays (human region).
