Semester Final Study Guide 1 Geography was initially used for explorers, travelers, sailors. Mapmaking (cartography) was the 1st field in geography. 2 Global positioning systems use an integrated system of satellites to help locate places on the Earth accurately. 3 Geographic Information Systems (GIS) use layers of information to describe features on the Earth?s surface and help clarify spatial relationships. 4 The term for human-induced changes on the environment is Anthropogenic 5 Sustainability means that future generations as well as current populations will have enough resources to meet their needs. 6 Geographic scale refers to a hierarchy of spaces, like neighborhood, city, county, state, etc.

Let me explain ? ?The Demographic Transition Model? ? A series of stages that a country goes through when transitioning from non- industrial to industrial. ? Involves five stages that are based on changes in population size and social behaviors. ? CBR : High - Why? ? CDR: High - Why? ? Population: Stable ? Hunter-Gatherer Societies ? Economic Activity: Basic Primary (basic?) ? Examples ? No Countries? but small bans of indigenous people in isolated areas. Stage 1 ?Low Growth? Population Pyramid Shape ? CBR: High ? Why? ?
