A topographic map or topo map uses a system of contour lines to show the different landforms in a particular place. The landforms thereby helps to delineate the relief of a particular region.
Contour lines are lines in a topographical map that joins places with the same elevation. The sequences or patterning of contours reveals a lot about a terrain. When contours are close together, an area can best be predicted to have a steep slope but contours far apart shows a gentle terrain.
Topographical maps are usually the base maps for other types of maps because of their importance.
The topographic maps have contour lines and they connect the point of the identical elevation that is found above the means sea levels. These lines are separated by a constant difference to the intervals.
<u>The topographic map tends to show the same topographic feature with the connected dots instead of a color or shaded pattern. Either the location on a hill or the valley or the mountain with a specific contour interval.

Thus primary importance of the map is to show the detail of the elevated features that oriented to the distance with each other and are collected by the data obtained by remote sensing and aerial photography.
The exercise of freedom of expression by some media houses in SA is
being thwarted by the government due to the increase of journalist and reporters
killing for the past years. This clearly shows that the citizen in South Africa
has no freedom to know how their country is performing and how will it affect
them in the long run.
