  2. Contour line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_line

    A level set is a generalization of a contour line for functions of any number of variables. Contour lines are curved, straight or a mixture of both lines on a map describing the intersection of a real or hypothetical surface with one or more horizontal planes. The configuration of these contours allows map readers to infer the relative gradient ...

  3. Topographic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_map

    Section of topographical map of Nablus area with contour lines at 100-meter intervals. Heights are colour-coded. Heights are colour-coded. In modern mapping, a topographic map or topographic sheet is a type of map characterized by large- scale detail and quantitative representation of relief features, usually using contour lines (connecting ...

  4. Terrain cartography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrain_cartography

    The Tanaka (relief) contours technique is a method used to illuminate contour lines in order to help visualize terrain. Lines are highlighted or shaded depending on their relationship to a light source in the Northwest. If the object being illustrated would shadow a section of contour line, that contour would be represented with a black band.

  5. Topographic profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_profile

    A topographic profile or topographic cut or elevation profile is a representation of the relief of the terrain that is obtained by cutting transversely the lines of a topographic map. Each contour line can be defined as a closed line joining relief points at equal height above sea level. [1]

  6. Marching squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marching_squares

    Typical applications include the contour lines on topographic maps or the generation of isobars for weather maps. Marching squares takes a similar approach to the 3D marching cubes algorithm: Process each cell in the grid independently. Calculate a cell index using comparisons of the contour level(s) with the data values at the cell corners.

  9. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    The boundary of a cross-section in three-dimensional space that is parallel to two of the axes, that is, parallel to the plane determined by these axes, is sometimes referred to as a contour line; for example, if a plane cuts through mountains of a raised-relief map parallel to the ground, the result is a contour line in two-dimensional space ...
