CONTOURS AND STRUCTURAL CONTOURS Contours are imaginary lines on a map that connect points of equal elevation above sea level. They are essential tools in topographic mapping and geography for representing the relief and shape of the Earth's surface. By analyzing the spacing and patterns of these lines, one can easily interpret valleys, hills, ridges, slopes, and plains. When contour lines are closely spaced, they indicate a steep slope; when they are widely spaced, they indicate a gentle slope.
