If you want to buy some for the United States, the USGS (United States Geological Survey) is the place to go.
cartographers. ooo and P -diddy as well. lol no but really...cartographers
Topographic maps have multiple uses in the present day: any type of geographic planning or large-scale architecture; earth sciences and many other geographic disciplines; mining and other earth-based endeavours; and recreational uses such as hiking or, in particular, orienteering, which uses highly detailed maps in its standard requirements
Topographic maps show topography. Topography is the height and dimensions of a land mass above water, conversely bythmetery is know as water topography. Geologic maps show geological feature of a land mass such as vegetation and climate zones.
The United States Geological Survey uses the same legend on all of their maps to avoid confusion when looking at different maps. If one map used one symbol for a specific geologic type of marker and another map used another symbol, it would be extremely difficult to read the maps quickly and efficiently.
That would be a topographical map. It uses contour lines (usually 100 or 50 ft. incraments) to show elevation above or below sea level. They're usually black & white and can be found wherever you can find maps.
It is used to show much greater details about small areas.:)
Businesses use topographic maps for site selection, resource planning, and infrastructure development. Governments use topographic maps for urban planning, disaster management, and environmental conservation. Both sectors rely on these maps to make informed decisions based on accurate geographical data.
Businesses use topographic maps (maps showing the surface features of an area)to help decide where to build new stores, housing, or factories. also the government uses a topographic map to find out where to build new schools and other public buildings.

A topographic map is a way to represent a two dimensional surface. A topographic map uses contour lines to show elevation and change.
