A contour line below sea level is called a bathytherm.
•Contour Line: locus of points with constant elevation. •Dense information along the contour line. •Hardly any information across the contour line.
The contour lines on a map indicate changes in elevation above sea level (or below, occasionally). The amount of change in elevation between lines is shown on the map legend, and will vary depending on the size of the map and the type of terrain.
The numbers on contour lines show the different elevations. Lets say one contour line says it has 1450 elevation. That means it is on the highest peak. When you see other numbers, that is just the elevation
A contour line in art is an outline of a subject with no shading.
No because their not all at sea level.
It means the same thing.
A line on a map joining points of equal height above or below sea level.
Isobar for atmospheric pressure, isotherm for temperature, or contour for height above (below) sea level.
Sea level
the distance between mean sea level and any given contour line
shows the elevation above sea level.
A contour line is a line on a map connecting points of equal elevation or depth. Contour lines help visualize and understand the shape of the land by showing the topographic features like hills, valleys, and plateaus. These lines make it easier to interpret the terrain and plan routes in outdoor activities.
the distance above or below sea level
The line on maps showing height above or below sea level is called a contour line. These lines connect points of equal elevation, allowing viewers to visualize terrain and elevation changes on a map. The spacing between contour lines indicates the steepness of the terrain: close lines mean steep slopes, while widely spaced lines indicate flat areas.
The geographical term is "contour line." A contour line connects points of equal elevation on a map, indicating areas of the same height above sea level.
it is a contour line of elevation Control index contour, or just index contour
The numerical values along the lines of contour, indicate the elevation above or below sea level.
