A map is classified as small scale or large scale or sometimes medium scale. Small scale refers to world maps or maps of large regions such as continents or large nations. In other words, they show large areas of land on a small space. They are called small scale because the representative fraction is relatively small. 2, record 2, English, - small%2Dscale%20map

The First World War, or(before 1939) the Great War, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice on November 11, 1918. The Allied Powers(led by the United Kingdom, France and until 1917 Russia, and, after 1917, the United States) defeated the Central Powers(led by the German Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire). The war caused the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe and the Middle East. 4, record 5, English, - First%20World%20War

The Global Assessment of Human Induced Soil Degradation(GLASOD) was conducted by the International Soil Reference and Information Centre(ISRIC) at Wageningen, The Netherlands, as commissioned by the United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP). ISRIC produced a 1 : 10 million scale wall chart in 1990 and subsequently produced a digital data set. In essence, the GLASOD data base contains information on soil degradation within map units as reported by numerous soil experts around the world through a questionnaire. It includes the type, degree, extent, cause and rate of soil degradation. 1, record 15, English, - Global%20Assessment%20of%20Human%20Induced%20Soil%20Degradation

The RADARSAT Antarctic Mapping Mission(AMM) has important significance for the scientific community. Almost 70% of the Earth's fresh water is contained in the Antarctic region, and changes in this enormous reservoir directly influence world sea levels and climate. The new digital radar map will provide an unprecedented detailed portrayal of the surface form and features of the ice sheet. This RADARSAT based map will help scientists to better understand the dynamic behaviour of the ice sheet and provide them with a greater insight into the effects of human activity on the Southern Continent. 2, record 16, English, - Antarctic%20Mapping%20Mission

La Mission de cartographie de l'Antarctique par RADARSAT est d'une grande importance pour la communauté scientifique puisque cette région contient près de 70 pour 100 des réserves d'eau douce de la planète et que toute modification touchant cet immense réservoir a une incidence directe sur le climat et le niveau des eaux dans le monde entier. Une mosaïque d'images numériques haute résolution de l'inlandsis et des parties non recouvertes du continent sera constituée à partir d'images RADARSAT. La nouvelle carte radar numérique fournira un relevé d'un niveau de précision sans précédent des caractéristiques et du relief de l'inlandsis.

The Canadian Lightning Detection Network(CLDN) helps meteorologists and scientists detect and monitor thunderstorms at an early stage in their development. Eighty-three sensors are set up across the country forming the Canadian portion of a North American network which is the largest of its kind in the world. The CLDN is able to detect more than 100 000 lightning flashes an hour. Within 40 seconds, the sensors determine the stregnth and location of lightning, send the information to Environment Canada's weather centres and then map out the information on a computer screen. 1, record 17, English, - Canadian%20Lightning%20Detection%20Network

Record number: 18, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Overview of resampling methods. From the perspective of space, a satellite camera or sensor takes images that provide unique Earth information at scales ranging from very small to very large. To better understand an image, its shape, scale and perspective often are changed by rectification, orthorectification or map projection to relate it to real world coordinates. During that process, however, gaps between pixels may form, requiring that images be resampled to fill in those missing pixels. There are basically 3 methods of resampling : nearest neighbor, bilinear interpolation and cubic convolution. 4, record 18, English, - resampling
