Define Transform faults.
Define a contour. State the various characteristics of contour lines.
3)The accompanying tabulation gives elevations of points over the area 20m by 20m
city lot. The elevations were obtained by the checkerboard method using 10-m squares.
Requirements:
a)Plot the contours using a horizontal scale of 6cm=10m and a contour interval of 1 meter.
b)Use short-sized bond paper.All corner designations and corresponding elevations must
be indicated,including all vertical and horizontal lines.
c)lndicate the following Index contours:880,885,890 & 895.The thickness of the index
contours must be drawn about twice the thickness of intermediate contours.
d)Show solutions in interpolations.
