Introduction
 Contour lines are used on
topographical maps to show how the
height and shape of land changes.
They are also used to draw cross
sections which give a side view of
landforms. This presentation
demonstrates how cross sections are
drawn.
 Contour patterns are also used to
identify different landforms. This
presentation will show you various
contour patterns and the features
they represent.

What are contour lines?
Contour lines are
lines drawn on
topographic maps
joining places of
equal height above
sea level.
On topographical
maps contour lines
are the brown lines
with the values
written in the gaps
within the line.

Contour interval or vertical interval
Contour interval is
the difference in
height between one
contour line and the
next.
The vertical interval
for this map is 100
metres.

Cross Sections
Contour lines are
used to draw cross
sections.
A cross section is a
side view of an area
or feature.
Cross sections help
us to visualize an
area.

They are also used to draw cross sections which give a side view of landforms. This presentation demonstrates how cross sections are drawn.  Contour patterns are also used to identify different landforms. This presentation will show you various contour patterns and the features they represent. 3
