What is the name of the type of map that depicts land below sea level?
This type of map is called a bathymetric map. It measures the different levels below the sea level. It is like a topographic map but below sea level.
Which type of map Displays sea level readings for specific locations?
topographical map
Which map is better for showing the height of a mountain above sea level an elevation map or relief map?
An elevation map would be better because an elevation map measures height.

I'm not sure
What is hydrographical map?
A map or chart showing depths of water, the nature of the bottom, contours of the bottom and coastline, and the tides and currents in sea.
Which map projection puts a map of the earth on to a flat piece of paper and is used by nearly all deep sea navigators?
All map projections put the earth's surface on to a flat sheet, in different ways. For navigation the Mercator projection is very common because a line on a constant compass bearing is shown as a straight line in this projection. Mercator is an example of a conformal projection because the shape of a small feature - like an island - is preserved on the map. Other projections preserve area or direction, but no projection can achieve everything, it's always a compromise.
When did Ptolemy create the map of the world?
This is a cylindrical map projection. It is a standard map for nautical purposes because it represents lines of constant course, called Rhum Lines, as straight segments. This is precisely the type of route employed by ships at sea. Compasses are used to indicate geographical direction and to steer the ship. The projection was presented by Mercator in 1569

On a contour map above as you travel farther away fron sea level what happen with the land?
As you travel farther away from sea level on a contour map, the land elevation increases. This means you are moving to higher ground or ascending in altitude. The contour lines on the map will be closer together, indicating a steeper slope or terrain as you move further from sea level.
What map is used to look above sea elevation?
A topographic map is used to display elevation above sea level. It uses contour lines to represent different elevations on the land surface.
