  2. Contour line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_line

    A contour map is a map illustrated with contour lines, for example a topographic map, which thus shows valleys and hills, and the steepness or gentleness of slopes. [4] The contour interval of a contour map is the difference in elevation between successive contour lines. [5] The gradient of the function is always perpendicular to the contour ...

  3. Digital geologic mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_geologic_mapping

    The thin red circular contour line in the middle of the map indicates the top of the oil reservoir. Because gas floats above oil, the thin red contour line marks the gas/oil contact zone. Digital geologic mapping is the process by which geological features are observed, analyzed, and recorded in the field and displayed in real-time on a ...

  4. Marching squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marching_squares

    Typical applications include the contour lines on topographic maps or the generation of isobars for weather maps. Marching squares takes a similar approach to the 3D marching cubes algorithm: Process each cell in the grid independently. Calculate a cell index using comparisons of the contour level(s) with the data values at the cell corners.

  5. Topographic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_map

    Topographic maps are also commonly called contour maps or topo maps. In the United States, where the primary national series is organized by a strict 7.5-minute grid, they are often called or quads or quadrangles. Topographic maps conventionally show topography, or land contours, by means of contour lines.

  6. Terrain cartography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrain_cartography

    Siegfried map of Bernina Pass (1877) with black, blue and brown contour lines at 30-meter intervals. On maps produced by Swisstopo, the color of the contour lines is used to indicate the type of ground: black for bare rock and scree, blue for ice and underwater contours, and brown for earth-covered ground. [4]

  7. Geologic modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_modelling

    The thin red circular contour line in the middle of the map indicates the top of the oil reservoir. Because gas floats above oil, the thin red contour line marks the gas/oil contact zone. Geologic modelling, geological modelling or geomodelling is the applied science of creating computerized representations of portions of the Earth's crust ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Maps

    The aim of WikiProject Maps is to improve the quality of maps across the Wikimedia Foundation. The Maps for Wikipedia page is an overview of different formats and tools for maps available on Wikipedia. The Map conventions page provides advice for creating and improving maps. The Map workshop page can be used to add your map requests and your ...

  9. Reservoir modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_modeling

    Screenshot of a structure map generated by Contour map software for an 8500ft deep gas & Oil reservoir in the Erath field, Vermilion Parish, Erath, Louisiana. The left-to-right gap, near the top of the contour map indicates a Fault line. This fault line is between the blue/green contour lines and the purple/red/yellow contour lines.
