Lab #2

(1) The name is the Beverly Hills quadrangle.

(2) Names of Adjacent Qudrangles: (1) Canoga Park, (2) Van Nuys, (3) Burbank, (4) Topanga, Hollywood, (7) Venice, (8) Inglewood.

(3) Topography was compiled in 1966.

(4) The North American Datum of 1927 & National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 were used to create this map.

(5) The scale is 1:24,000

(6)
(a) 1/24000=5cm/X, X=120,000cm=1,200m
(b) 1/24000=5in./X, X=120,000in.=1.894 miles
(c) 1/24000=X/1mile, X=1/24,000miles= 2.64 in.
(d) 1/24000=X/3km, X=3/24000km= 12.5 centimeters

(7) Contour Interval is 20ft.

(8)Approx. Geographic Coordainates
(a) Public Affairs Bldg.= Latitude: 34 4 46 N Longitude: 118 26 14 W= 34.079 N 118.437 W
(b) Santa Monica Pier= Latitude: 34 0 43 N Longitude: 118 29 72 W= 34.012 N 118.503 W
(c) Upper Franklin Canyon Reservoir= Latitude: 34 07 10 N Longitude: 118 24 37 W= 34.12 N 118.41W

(9)Approx. Elevation
(a) Greystone Mansion= 560 ft=170.68m
(b) Woodlawn Cemetery= 140 ft= 42.67m
(c) Crestwood Hills Park= 620 ft= 188.98m

(10) The UTM Zone of the map is zone 11.

(11) The UTM coordinates of the lower corner of the map are 3,763,000m N 361,500m E.

(12) Within each cell of the UTM gridlines there is an area of 1,000m X 1,000m= 1,000,000 m^2

(13)

(14) The magnetic declination of the map is positive 14 degrees.

(15) According to the contours on the map, there is a higher elevation from the north to south, so I would say according to elevation the stream would flow from North to South.
