Contour surveying
Contour:
A Contour or Contour Line is defined as an imaginary line joining the points
having the same elevation on the surface of the Earth.
Example:
The periphery of water surface of a still lake or a pond represents a contour
line. Contour lines are expressed by the elevations of lines as 100 m contour,
105 m contour, etc.
Contouring:
It is the process of locating contour lines on the surface of the Earth.
Contour
Map:
The map which represents the contour lines is called Contour Map. A contour map
shows elevations and depressions in the contour lines to give a complete
picture of the configuration of the Earth's surface (i.e., topography of the
Earth's surface).
Contour
Interval: It is the vertical distance between any two
consecutive contours.
