The base map on a thematic sheet should normally be drawn

  • A.only where the theme has no data
  • B.in a lighter weight than the theme
  • C.in the same weight as the theme
  • D.in a heavier weight than the theme

Answer: B

Correct answer: in a lighter weight than the theme

The base map is there to let the reader locate the theme, not to compete with it, so it is drawn in lighter weights and muted tones and stripped of anything the theme does not need. Getting this wrong is a common fault: a full-strength topographic base beneath a thematic layer leaves the reader hunting for the subject among the coastlines and roads.
