Elevations, or altitudes, irrespective of longitude and latitude, use spot heights for individual points like summits, and contour-lines to trace levels across the landscape at particular elevations. The heights may be in feet or (more universally now) metres.

What does a contour line measure?
The scale of contour lines on a topographic (terrain) map is called the "contour interval".
What does contourlines mean?
Contour lines are lines drawn on a map connecting points of the same elevation. They help to illustrate the shape and elevation of the land, showing where the land is flat, sloping, or steep. The closer together the contour lines, the steeper the terrain.

What kind of map shows elevation?
A topographic map shows the elevation of the Earth's surface using contour lines to represent changes in elevation. The closer together the contour lines, the steeper the terrain; the farther apart, the gentler.
