Item 1: Map Skills
For this item use the East Africa 1:50,000(Uganda) map extract of Kijura series Y732,
sheet 56/2, Edition3-U.S.D, the information in the text below and the support
materials in Fig. 1 provided to answer the tasks given:
(a) Adyeri lives in Nyakabale Tea Estate in the Southern part of the area shown
on the map extract. Whenever she is traveling she picks the taxi from the
road junction at grid reference 122853. She wants to visit her aunt, a nursing
officer at Kyabajasi hospital (grid reference 123899). The taxi fare is sh2000
per head per kilometre.
Task: Determine the amount of money she will spend on the journey.
(b) The communities living in Hakibaale one of the sub-counties shown on the
map extract of Kijura, carry out large scale tea growing. Most of their farms
are found in areas East of Easting 07 and South of Northing 96.
The farmers have plans to expand their farms. Expansion in the Northern and
Western directions is limited by the steep and rugged relief. The farmers are
requesting government to allow them expand their farms towards the Southern
and Eastern directions up to Burahya-Mwenge County boundary.
The local government Secretary for Environment is opposed to their request
on grounds that it may negatively affect the natural environment in the area
but farmers are determined to go on with the expansion.
