Maps aren't true representation of real locations as they are on the earth surface.

  • Maps provide a geographical representation of locations, areas and features of the earth on paper.

  • The Earth has been proven to be a geoid in shape, this brings a certain level of inaccuracy to map represention which depicts the layout of the earth as being flat.

  • Due to the enormous size of the earth, replicatinh real position snd distances on paper is almost impossible.

  • Measuring devices such as GPS, compass clinometers lack 100% accuracy to provide real and exact distances and bearing required for accurate representation.

Hence, depiction of real and exact locations on the earth on maps seems impossible.
