Geological Map

A geological map is a specialized representation of the Earth's surface that shows the distribution, nature, and age of rock formations and soil types in a particular area. It uses colors and symbols to indicate different geological features, such as mountains, valleys, and mineral deposits. These maps help geologists understand the processes that shaped the landscape, identify resources like minerals or groundwater, and assess natural hazards. Geological maps are important tools for environmental planning, land use, and studying natural history, making them valuable for both scientific research and practical applications.
