Calculate map distance given map scale and ground distance. At a map scale of 1:100000, 1 kilometer on the ground is equivalent to 1 millimeter on the map.
You can calculate distance in map units (using Pythagoras theorem). In equator, it equals to distance on earth (scale factor = 1); if you move towards poles, distance in map units and in earth are not equal anymore - scale factor starts to increase.
To calculate the distance between two points on a map, you need to know the map's scale factor. There are two ways to calculate a scale factor: Use the length of an object on the map and compare it to the length of the same object in real life.
What distance does 1cm on a map really equate to? What are the different map standards? Thanks to our calculator, you can convert different scales with a single click!
11 maj 2024 · This calculator provides the calculation of scaled distance based on the original distance and scale factor. Explanation Calculation Example: Scale factors are used to enlarge or reduce the size of an object or distance.
17 cze 2016 · The scale factor compares the scale at points on the map to the map's nominal scale. For instance, if the nominal scale is 1:25000 but the scale at a point (in a particular direction) actually is 1:50000, then the scale factor at that point is (1/50000) divided by (1/25000), equal to 1/2.
