Answer :
CONVENTION SIGNS AND SYMBOLS
Conventional signs and symbols are the representation of the physical and man-made features of the specific place. They are used universally and are easier to lean and remember. Various colors are used to denote different vegetation and land forms. Every sign and symbol represents a different feature.
COLOURS ON TOPOGRAPHICAL MAPS
The typical color standard for topographic maps depicts contours in brown, bodies of water in blue, boundaries in black, and grids and roads in red. Topographic maps may use different colors to represent area features. Most topographic maps will use green for vegetation or national parks and wildlife management areas.
