Cartography Nomenclature - Cards

The term 'nomenclature' derives from the Latin nomenclatura, meaning 'assigning names.' Nomenclature enriches vocabulary, develops language skills, and enhances the understanding of concepts.

The Cartography Nomenclature Cards are formatted in a 3-part card series. This set includes 12 concepts of cartography: cartography, globe, map, compass rose, grid system, Earth coordinates, hemispheres, map projections, physical map, political map, road map, and topographic map.

Includes:

  • 12 cards with labels
  • 12 cards without labels
  • 12 labels

To use three-part cards, match the labels to the corresponding pictures. Verify the matches using the control cards with the labels.

Cards with labels are approx. 3¾" x 4", cards without labels are approx. 1" shorter, labels are approx. 1".
