to as a contour line; for example, if a plane cuts through mountains of a raised-relief map parallel to the ground, the result is a contour line in two-dimensional...

charts also include depth contour lines. It is thus sometimes possible to navigate in poor visibility by noting which contour line one is closest to. During...

of lines and points at equal intervals, called depth contours or isobaths (a type of contour line). A closed shape with increasingly smaller shapes inside...

touch a contour line of f, since by definition f does not change as we walk along its contour lines. This would mean that the tangents to the contour lines...

map with isopleth or contour lines that indicate differing amounts of rainfall. Such a map can be thought of as a rainfall contour map. Many sophisticated...
