CONTOUR LINES
through positions of the same height.
They show the height of ground above
mean sea level (M.S.L.) in either feet
or metres and can be drawn at any
desired interval. On the 1 inch map,
the contours are drawn for every 50 ft.,
while on the Va, inch map, they
are drawn for every 200 ft. of
height above M.S.L.
Close Contour

When far apart

The vertical distance between contour
lines is called the Vertical Interval (V.I.)
or Contour Interval (C. I.). The horizontal
distance between contours is called the
Horizontal Equivalent (H. E.)

SCALE 1 in. = 1 MILE
To find Map reference of I
s proceed as follows —
* 1. Find Number of Grid Line West of i (91)
>" Ascertain number of tenths ft is east of (91)
This is observed to be 6.
Set it down thus, 916. This is known as
j. EASTING
= 2. Find Number of Grid Line South of i (94)
Ascertain number of tenths ft is North of (94)
This is observed to be 4.
Set it down thus, 944. This is known as
NORTHING
The Map reference of ft is therefore 916944
ALWAYS MEASURE OVER TO THE EAST AND THEN
UP TO THE NORTH. IN OTHER WORDS FIND THE
:
EASTING AND THEN THE NORTHING.
Note —When using a reference
on the Va inch map give the letter 0
of the large square concerned.
Map Reference on Va in. to mile is
U9294
