Isoline Map






Isoline maps show patterns that are usually represented by lines. An isoline map can also be referred to as a contour map. The lines on these maps can illustrate steepness, slopes, and elevation such as mountains and valleys. In addition, and isoline map also tries to demonstrate a 3 dimensioal view of the area under review.
I have chosen this map because it demonstrates exactly how the the contour lines help to create this type of map.
