State whether the following is true or false.
Every thematic map must include a scale bar.

  • A.False
  • B.True only at large scales
  • C.False only at small scales
  • D.True

Answer: A

A map whose purpose is comparison between units rather than measurement of distance may reasonably omit one, and a cartogram cannot carry a meaningful scale at all. The test is whether the reader is expected to measure anything.
