Map Skills 5 ‘Relief’ To understand how height is shown on a map.

Match the terms with their meanings. Spot Heights… Contours… Layer Shading… …are lines which join up places with the same height. …are numbers which show the exact height of a place. …uses colours to show areas of land that are at different heights.

Relief Relief is the shape of the land. There are three ways to show relief on a map. Can you think of any?

How is relief shown on a map? 1. Colour shading 2. Spot heights 3. Contours 30 20 10
