A map uses the same symbol for a hospital and a school. What problem will occur?

Correct answer: Identification of the two places will be confusing

The governing principle is the clear and consistent use of visual symbols. A map symbol should help users identify a place quickly and distinguish it from other places. If one symbol represents both a hospital and a school, the reader cannot reliably tell which facility is shown, so option C is correct. The symbol does not change the map’s size, route lengths, or north direction.
