Isoline Map



http://lostmanmaps.com/gallery.html

An isoline map is used many different ways, what defines an isoline map is the use of lines to distinguish between the amount of the variable being shown. Isolines are very user friendly and in most cases like the one above they fill the different isolines in with color to make it even easier to interpret. The above map is of the state Washington and the amount of rainfall in 1996. You can see how the lines and colors distinguish between the amount of rainfall.
