What three pieces of information does a topographic map provide?
There are many more than three. Compared to a road map, topographic maps also give: Elevation benchmarks, elevation contour lines, marked mountain peaks, and terrain features/landmarks such as buildings, roads, hiking paths, rivers, streams, towers, swampy areas etc. Topo maps will also have latitude and longitude grid lines for precise location identification either to set a GPS waypoint from the map, or to verify GPS coordinates when at a location. Most will also provide magnetic declination from True North for the area covered by the map allowing the user to set their compass to point so North on the dial is True North.

How do business and government use topographic maps?

What would the highest and lowest points in an area like on a topographic map?
On a topographic map a contour line connects points of equal elevation.....hope that helped
Which chart type is a combination of an area chart and a topographic map?
A combination of an area chart and a topographic map is typically referred to as a "contour area chart" or "area contour chart." This visualization uses shaded areas to represent values, similar to an area chart, while incorporating contour lines that indicate levels or gradients, akin to a topographic map. This type of chart is useful for displaying data that has both a quantitative measure and geographical context.
