A map usually has a legend, or key, that gives the scale of the map and explains what the various symbols represent. Some maps show relief, or changes in elevation. A common way to show relief is contour lines, also called topographic lines. These are lines that connect points that have equal elevation.
Conventional symbols are widely accepted signs or sign systems which signify an idea or concept. They represent different features on a map and are not drawn to scale. They are important because: Symbols can be used to depict features like cities, roads and railways.
Map detail includes important information about elevation, water, structures, trails, ground cover and roads; and much more. Colors stand out from the map and provide identification to many features such as vegetation and water. Colors represent natural and man-made features of the earth.
