Contours show points of the same height. These points are joined up usually in 5m or 10m intervals. This line is made up from joining up all the points.

Contours show points of the same height. These points are joined up usually in 5m or 10m intervals. This line is made up from joining up all the points of the same height

Why do you think it is important to have contours on a map? Make a list of answers with your friend To design a pipeline To find level land for construction or agriculture Here are a couple of examples:

Plot this pyramid using contours Level at base=10m (above sea level) 50m Level at base=10m (above sea level) Remember that a pyramid has 4x sides and this has a square base Chose a suitable scale

60m 10m 20m 30m 40m 50m 60m 50m Is this what yours looked like? What is your scale? 1cm to 10m 1:100? Is this what yours looked like? What is your scale? 1cm to 10m 1:100?

But how do we plot a map if we do not have the co-ordinates or dimensions? As we only wanted to plot the pyramid we did not need to know where it was relative to other areas We need to carry out surveying We were able to plot the pyramid as we had the dimensions Level at base=10m 50m Level at top=60m

Surveying is the art and science of measuring and mapping land The main job of the surveyor is measuring, mapping, and observing

Leveling Staff Tripod Dumpy Level Theodelite GPS Compass Measuring Tape alidade Tripod Plane Table Here are some surveying tools:

A Plane Table provides a solid and flat surface to make field drawings, charts and maps A tripod is needed so that an even surface can be achieved on uneven ground Spirit/bubble levels are used to get horizontal surface level.

Eye piece Thread to bisect/spilt in half the point of interest Perpendicular straight edge ruler This is an Alidade which is used to sight objects of interest:
