Question

पर्याय

• Choropleth maps

• Isopleth maps

• Dot maps

• Square root maps

Answer 1

Dot maps

Explanation:

A dot map is the most accurate method for displaying population distribution. In this mapping technique, each plotted dot represents a specific, fixed number of people (for example, 1 dot = 10,000 people). These dots are placed directly on the map over real geographical areas, making it easy to see instantly where populations are tightly clustered, like in fertile river valleys, or heavily scattered, like in deserts and mountains.
