What is the “local relief” of this landscape (the difference in elevation between the highest and lowest locations)?
The question is based on this contour line map with elevations shown in feet.
• North is to the top of the map.
• Streams are shown with dashed lines.
• A graphic scale for measuring horizontal distances is shown below the map.
• Estimate elevations between contour lines to the nearest half-contour interval; assume that the top of a
hill is one-half-contour interval higher than the highest contour line shown.
What will be an ideal response?
700 feet
