This research is to explain the nature of geological maps and the updated procedures for preparing them by identifying their drawing scales, symbols and colors, and the characteristics of their layers detector lines and the strike lines of these layers, and then the procedures of creating and preparing their maps and sectors of their horizontal, vertical and inclined layers, as well as identifying the characteristics of their geological structures such as folds and refractions in order to understand how to analyze and interpret geological maps. Although geological maps share (in their uses) with geographical and geological disciplines, yet (in their preparation and design) they are closer to geographical disciplines, as they are one of the types of (distribution maps), which is an original specialty in the science of geography. A geographer specializes in establishing and establishing different types of maps, starting with laying the foundations for creating the map, its tools, keys, and drawing scales, and moving to the steps of the ground survey of elevation points and their coordinates, whether for topographical phenomena or for the corners and dimensions of geological layers and their detectors, up to the design and connection of terrain contour lines, and determining the appropriate contour interval, depending on Altitude Points. Finally, the research identifies the steps and methods of drawing the exposed range of geological layers on contour lines, and ending with reading and explaining the topographical and geological components of the features found on the map, in addition to trying to interpret and identify the topographical and geological history that the area appearing on this geological map went through.
