Topographic Map


A topographic map shows quantative landscaping information through the use of contour lines. This map is useful because it also shows natural and man made resources such as bodies of water in the surrounding areas or mineral deposits, which is useful for strategical or landscape planning. The different colors and different shades of each color show how deep the water is and how high the mountains are in Albania.
