   A topographical map contains curved lines called contour lines. Each contour line corresponds to the points on the map that have equal elevation (Figure 1). A level curve of a function of two variables [latex]f\,(x,\ y)[/latex] is completely analogous to a counter line on a topographical map.

   The latitude and longitude coordinates of NRCan maps are found along the edge of a map (for example see the map of Canadian geology we studied in Chapter 1). On USGS topographic maps the latitude and longitude coordinates are found at the corners of the map (Figure 7.2).

   A topographical map is a two-dimensional visualization of three-dimensional terrain through the so-called level curves or contours corresponding to points of equal elevation. Example 1. Here is a map of the region near South Hamilton, NY: (a) If you are standing where the black dot is, how high are you? What do you see when you look south?

   A topographic map is an extremely useful type of map that adds a third dimension (vertical) to an otherwise two-dimensional map defined by the north, south, east, and west compass directions.

   3.3 Level Curves and Level Surfaces. Topographic (also called contour) maps are an effective way to show the elevation in 2-D maps. These maps are marked with contour lines or curves connecting points of equal height. Figure 1: Topographic map of Stowe, Vermont, in the US.

   What is a level curve on a topographical map?

   • A level curve of a function of two variables f (x, y) f (x, y) is completely analogous to a counter line on a topographical map. Figure 1. (a) A topographical map of Devil’s Tower, Wyoming. Lines that are close together indicate very steep terrain. (b) A perspective photo of Devil’s Tower shows just how steep its sides are.

   What is a topographical map?

   • Another type of visualization is through their contour diagrams or contour maps. A contour diagram is, in essence, a opographical map" of the graph of z = f(x; y). A topographical map is a two-dimensional visualization of three-dimensional terrain through the so-called level curves or contours corresponding to points of equal elevation.

   What is a level curve?

   • Such a curve is called the level curve of height c or the level curve with value c and is denoted by L (c) or by f − 1 (c). By drawing a number of level curves, we get what is called a contour plot or contour map, which provides a good representation of the function z = f (x, y).

   How do you calculate relief on a topographic map?

   • The span of the third dimension (elevation) represented by contour lines on a topographic map is called the relief. The relief for a topographic map is easily calculated by finding the highest and lowest contour line elevations on the map; you then subtract the two values to determine the vertical relief represented in the map.

   Level curves are the equivalent of contours on a topographical map. In such a map the terrain is shown by drawing curves through all points which have the same height above sea level. The numbers on the curves in the map shown below are the heights above sea level in metres.
