the measure of change in elevation in a certain distance is called gradient
Gradient
The change in elevation from one contour line to the next is called the contour interval. It represents the difference in elevation between adjacent contour lines on a topographic map.
The measure of how high a place is above sea level is called elevation.

The height at one place is called elevation. Elevation refers to the vertical distance of a location above sea level.
The measure of how far an object moves during a certain time period is called speed, which is typically calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel that distance. Alternatively, velocity includes both the speed and the direction of the object's motion.
This characteristic is called altitude or elevation.
Total distance over total time is called average speed. It is a measure of the overall rate of motion of an object during a certain period of time.
The height above or below sea level is "elevation". Altitude is used only for distance above sea level.
the measure of a straight-line distance between two points is called length.
The instrument used to measure the total distance that a car has traveled is called an odometer.
