Location
Pinpoints different positions, people, places and locations on the earth surface.

Place
Define by a physical area and everything that is within it. It gives personality which differentiate them from other places.

How They Form and Change
Examples. A functional region usually encompasses a central point with defined boundaries and the area around it that is connected via a well-developed network of transportation and communication systems that facilitates the movement of people, goods, and ideas within that system.
How maps allow people to identify exact locations
Maps nowadays give information about the world in a simple, graphic way. They communicate to the world by presenting dimensions and figures of countries, places of geographies, and space among places. They show spreading of things over the world, such as neighborhood patterns. Showing exact locations of homes and streets in a cities and there neighborhoods. Cartographers relay on assessment data for precise information the use of such instruments as topography, and compasses. Some use distant sensing to gather information, sensors that detect radiation, some use satellites. Today there are a multitude of ways to gather information to identify exact locations.
