Isoline Map

Isoline Map
An isoline map is one with continuous lines joining points with the same value. It is used to interpret some meaning and information of a thematic map. It describes some sort of distributions on a map, and often uses a color or pattern to do so. This example is a common one form the evening weather report, which shows a forecast of winds (mph) for a day. The lighter blue the lower the winds, and the darker blue the high the winds.
