Contours and relief
Each line joins locations at the same height. No spot height is supplied for P.
Fictional hill contours. Original fictional resource; not an official map or real dataset.
On a small screen, scroll the diagram sideways to see the full resource.
Resource description
Four contours rise from 50 m to 125 m at intervals of 25 m. P is between the two highest contours.
Use the resource carefully
State the unit and the part of the resource you used. A pattern in a fictional dataset is evidence for that exercise; it does not establish a fact about a real place.
Check whether an explanation is supported by the data or needs additional geographical knowledge. For statistical tasks, a calculated result does not establish causation or significance by itself.
