6. Topographic View in Maps
The topographic map uses contour lines to indicate changes in elevation, allowing users to understand the steepness and shape of the land. These contour lines are typically labeled with specific elevations to provide a precise understanding of the height variations within the landscape. Additionally, topographic maps may include symbols and colors to represent vegetation, forests, bodies of water, and other relevant features.
