They used to make maps by hand, but they do it by machines now.
topographic maps have contour lines that show a specific place...
Topographic maps show elevation, relief, terrain features, and topographic details such as contour lines, streams, lakes, and vegetation.
Topographic maps provide detailed information about the terrain's elevation and relief, using contour lines to represent changes in elevation. They show landforms such as mountains, valleys, and plains, as well as natural features like rivers and lakes. Additionally, topographic maps include man-made features such as roads, trails, and landmarks, which are often presented in a three-dimensional perspective, distinguishing them from standard maps that may focus primarily on political or geographic boundaries.
geologists use . topographic maps to see surface features
To find surrounding maps on a topographic map, look for grid lines or coordinates that provide references to adjacent maps. These grid indicators usually show which maps border the area you are currently viewing. You can use these references to locate and obtain the surrounding maps you need.

Topographic maps represent the Earth's surface because they show elevation in addition to distance and direction.
Elevation is one of the things that a topographic map will show.
