Can a scale be used to find the elevation of a feature on a topographic map?
No, a scale on a topographic map only shows the ratio of a distance on the map to the actual distance on the ground. To find the elevation of a feature, contour lines and contour intervals on the map must be used to determine the height above sea level.
Is a contour interval for a given topographic map always the same?
No, the contour interval can vary between different topographic maps based on the scale and detail of the map. Smaller scale maps may have larger contour intervals, while larger scale maps may have smaller contour intervals to show more detailed elevation changes.
What map shows earths surface features and elevation?
A topographical map.
What type of map shows where mountains and plains are located?
topographic maps show elevation slope and relief. a physical map shows the features of earths landmasses using texture. hope this help!
Do you need to have a topographic map in order to explore the ocean floor?
No. The ocean floor can be located by sonar, by probe or by diving. But a topographic map will save time and money and preclude errors, as well as providing some safety.
What scale is commonly used on topographic maps?
A commonly used scale on a topographic map is 1:24,000
What is a scale on a topographic map?
they both have green and cities states
What is shown on a topographic map scale?
they both have green and cities states
1 100000 is an example of what type of scale?
The map of 1:24000 scale is a large-scale topographic map, which indicates most terrain features.
Describe how to measure distance using topographic map?
To measure distance using a topographic map, you can use the map's scale. First, determine the scale of the map, such as 1:24,000. Then, use a ruler to measure the distance on the map between two points that you want to calculate the actual distance for. Convert the measured distance on the map to the actual distance using the map scale.
What type of map shows subject map area is located in the world?

What is a sentence with Topographic map?
What I need is a topographic map!
What kind of map shows the topographic features of an area?
a topographic map
A map that shows how the land looks like is called?
I believe it is a Thematic map.
Why does a topographic map have a key?
the key explains what the colors and shapes on the map represent. It also has a scale so you can accurately find the distance between objects.
