A topographic map.
A map with contour lines is called a topographic map. These lines represent changes in elevation and help to visualize the shape of the terrain. Topographic maps are commonly used for hiking, surveying, and land navigation.
Contour lines.
Those maps are called topographic maps. They use contour lines to show the shape and elevation of the land surface. Each contour line represents a specific elevation above sea level.
The elevation change between two adjacent contour lines on a topographic map is known as the contour interval. This interval represents the difference in elevation between each contour line. For example, if the contour interval is 50 feet, it means that each contour line represents a change in elevation of 50 feet.
Contour lines on a map indicate elevation. They connect points of equal elevation, showing the shape and steepness of the terrain. Closer contour lines indicate steep slopes, while spaced-out lines represent flatter areas.
Contour lines or also known as isohypses, connect points of equal elevation on a map. Contour lines can be curved, straight or a mixture of both. The lines on a map describe the intersection of a real or hypothetical surface with one or more horizontal planes.
The scale of contour lines on a topographic (terrain) map is called the "contour interval".
The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest contour lines on a topographical map is called a contour interval.
Those maps are called topographic maps. They use contour lines to show the shape and elevation of the land surface. Each contour line represents a specific elevation above sea level.
Bahahaha. They are called contour lines! That's the scientific name.
The darker contour lines on map are called index contour lines. Numbers that indicate elevations are often written on these lines.
The are called Contour Lines.
Called both Elevation Lines or Contour Lines
A contour lines connects points of equal elevation.
Contour lines are lines that connect points of equal elevation. A topographical map is a map that uses contour lines to represent the elevation of land surfaces.
Elevation contour lines.
The lines on a map that form a grid system are called latitude and longitude lines. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure distance north and south of the equator, while longitude lines run vertically and measure distance east and west of the Prime Meridian.
The lines on a topographic map are called contour lines. These lines represent points of equal elevation above or below a reference point, such as sea level. Contour lines help us visualize the shape and features of the land surface on a two-dimensional map.
