What is an isoline?
• Isoline: line that connects points of equal value on a map.
• Examples:• 1) isotherm (°C): line that connects points of equal temperature.
• 2) isobar (mb, in.): line that connects points of equal air pressure.
• 3) Contour line (m, ft): line that connects points of equal elevation.
• Interval: difference between two neighboring lines.

Rules of Isolines
• Isolines never touch or cross• Isolines are parallel and are curved• Isolines form closed loops (bullseyes) except
at the edge of the map; At center of bullseyes, H = High pressure and L = Low pressure.
• Each point on an isoline is the same• On an isoline map, the interval remains the
same

Interpreting Different Isolines
• When pressure lines are close together, strong winds; when pressure lines are far apart, gentle winds.
• When contour lines are close together, land is steep; when contour lines are far apart, land is flat, gentle.
• At an ocean shoreline, sea level is at 0 meters (0 feet).

Finding Elevation, Distance, GradientHow do we measure elevation?
How do we measure distance?
How do we find slope or
gradient (slope) of the land?
Gradient = change in elevation
change in distance
859ft - 680 ft
2 mi
179 ft = 89.5 ft
2 mi mile
