Geography fieldwork involves formulating an enquiry question, gathering data, analysing the results and reaching conclusions. Fieldwork is often written up as a report.

Maps represent the real world. Cartographic means anything relating to the drawing or making of maps. Atlas maps show large areas and Ordnance Survey maps show smaller areas in more detail. Sketch maps, satellite images, photos, GIS maps and geology maps are all useful, too.

Graphs, charts and maps can be used to show geographical information. Choosing the correct method of data presentation is important and knowing how to complete a graph is an essential geographical skill.

Data is often used to show geographical information. Being able to use measures of data, make calculations and explore relationships is an essential geographical skill.

Data can be quantitative or qualitative. When fieldwork data is collected, it can be either primary or secondary.
