Topographic Maps
Understanding Topographic Maps Topographic maps are two-dimensional representations of a portion of the three-dimensional surface of the earth. Topography is the shape of the land surface, and topographic maps exist to represent the land surface.
Understanding Topographic Maps Cartographers solve the problem of representing the three-dimensional land surface on a flat piece of paper by using contour lines, thus horizontal distances and vertical elevations can both be measured from a topographic map.

Topographic Quadrangles Quadrangles are sections of the Earth that are bounded by lines of Latitude at the top (north) and bottom (south) Longitude on the right (east) and left (west)
Topographic Quadrangles Longitude and latitude are measured in degrees, minutes and seconds. 1 degree (o) = 60 minutes (‘) 1 minute = 60 seconds (“)
Compass Bearing A bearing is the direction from one point to another. If direction is expressed in degrees east or west of north, it is called a “quadrant bearing.” If direction is expressed in degrees between 0 and 360, it is called “azimuth bearing.”

General Information Map Scale: Maps come in a variety of scales, covering areas ranging from the entire earth to a city block (or less).
General Information Vertical Scale (contour interval): All maps have a horizontal scale. Topographic maps also have a vertical scale to allow the determination of a point in three dimensional space. Contour Lines: Contour lines are used to determine elevations and are lines on a map that are produced from connecting points of equal elevation (elevation refers to height in feet, or meters, above sea level).

Contour Interval The Contour Interval (CI) is the difference in elevation between two adjacent contour lines. The CI can vary from map to map. Usually expressed in feet or meters. Elevation is always referenced to Mean Sea Level (MSL). MSL=0
Map Scale Several representations of scale exist: Verbal: “one inch equals one mile” Ratio: 1:24,000 means that the portion of the earth represented has been reduced to 1/24000th its actual size. Graphic:
Calculating Gradient (or Slope) Change in elevation between 2 points Distance between 2 points Gradient = Gradient is usually expressed as ft/mi.
Topographic Profiles Topographic maps represent a view of the landscape as seen from above (called “map view”). For producing a detailed study of a landform it is necessary to construct a topographic profile. A topographic profile is a cross-sectional view along a line drawn through a portion of a topographic map.
Creating Topographic Profiles Draw a line from Point A to Point A’ where you want a cross-sectional view of the topography.
Creating Topographic Profiles Lay a strip of paper along a line across the area where the profile is to be constructed. Mark on the paper the exact place where each contour, stream and hill top crosses the profile line. Label each mark with the elevation of the contour it represents.
Creating Topographic Profiles e. Prepare a vertical scale on profile paper by labeling the horizontal lines corresponding to the elevation of each index contour line.
Creating Topographic Profiles Place the paper with the labeled contour lines at the bottom of the profile paper and project each contour to the horizontal line of the same elevation. Connect the points.
Vertical Exaggeration Vertical Scale Horizontal Scale VE = Example: VE = 1:2000/1:4000 = 2 This means... "the vertical relief of the terrain portrayed in this profile view is exaggerated two-fold relative to its actual profile in the real-world".
