The third digit (A) refers to the sheet number within the state or province. The fourth and fifth digits (16) refer to the quadrangle number within the sheet. The last two digits (NW) refer to the direction of the map&#8217;s orientation (north-west).<\/p>\n<p>The scale of a topographic map is the ratio of the distance on the map to the actual distance on the ground. A scale of 1 : 50,000 means that every 1 unit on the map corresponds to an actual distance of 50,000 units on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of a topographic map is important because it allows you to determine the actual distance between two points on the map. It also allows you to determine the size of features on the map. For example, if a feature is 1 cm wide on <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> the map, it is actually 50,000 cm wide on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of a topographic map is also important for determining the amount of detail that is shown on the map.
