  • The features that are distinguished on these types of the map include boundaries of countries, states, and counties; the elevation of areas including mountains, hills, and valleys; physical features like railways, buildings, and roads; and settlements or towns.
  • There are 3 kinds of contour lines you’ll see on a map: intermediate, index, and supplementary:

1. Index lines are the thickest contour lines and are usually labeled with a number at one point along the line. This tells you the elevation above sea level.

2. Intermediate lines are the thinner, more common, lines between the index lines. They usually don't have a number label. Typically one index line occurs for every five intermediate lines.

3. Supplementary lines appear as dotted lines, indicating flatter terrain
