An elevation map would be better because an elevation map measures height.
Both will show the elevation. But a relief map, with its colouring and hatching may be easier for a novice to read. I prefer to view contour lines on a less cluttered map.
A contour line or a spot height.

A topographical map will show contour lines and spot heights, with mountain tops marked with their height.
To show the finished appearance of a give side of the building and furnish vertical height dimensions. (:
The height of a mountain peak above sea level is called its elevation.

The elevation of a mountain refers to its height above a reference point, typically mean sea level. It is usually measured in meters or feet. Elevation helps to give an indication of the mountain's height and prominence in its surroundings.

The tallest mountain is Pico Turquino having an elevation of 1,974 meters.
Elevation refers to the height of a mountain summit above a reference point, usually sea level. It is a measure of how tall a mountain is relative to its surroundings. The higher the elevation, the taller the mountain.
Apo Mountain's elevation is 9,692 feet (2.954km).
By drawing a sketch from the given information then using triangulation and trigonometry the height of the mountain works out as 3704.435 meters rounded to three decimal places.
The highest mountain is Chomolungma (Everest) with 8 848 m.
A map that shows the height of a mountain is called a topographic map or a relief map. These types of maps use contour lines to represent the elevation changes of the land and provide a visual representation of the mountain's height and terrain.
Using the sine rules in trigonometry the height of the mountain works out as 3704 meters in height to the nearest whole number.
The highest mountain in St. Vincent and the Grenadines is La Soufrière with an elevation of 1,234 m or 4,049 ft.
