Topographic maps use contour lines to show elevation.
Topographic maps, often called "topo maps," feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land.
Contour lines (lines of equal elevation) that are close together indicate steep terrain, while lines that are far apart indicate flat terrain.
