How to Draw Contour Lines on a Map

[@warbosspapasmurf]

Thank you!! My geology professor didn't go over this all that much and we had to do a at home lab, I was staring at it confused till I found this

[@ScottBrande]

Thanks for your comment. Glad my short video helped you.

[@sivap3356]

No problem... It's very easy, if we understand relation of soundings and depth contour.... Yes I'm hydrography cartographer

[@andypina4478]

The futures of my grades on my exam tomorrow depend on this video

[@epictrooper2568]

I really appreciate this. This is my first day at university and we have a lab tomorrow on this. My professor did not go over this at all so this is really helpful. I have been having a real tough time so I appreciate this.

[@ScottBrande]

Very glad to hear my little video helped you.

[@jessegiffin454]

Just watched this today for my class in 2022, I appreciate that you made this. My teacher just sent an assignment and sent us on our way. This is very helpful

[@ScottBrande]

Glad you discovered my video and that it helped you complete your assignment.

[@kellybmackenzie]

Thank you so much, I've been so confused about this in my Physical Geology class and you cleared it up for me so quickly!! This was really helpful!

[@ScottBrande]

Super - thanks for the feedback.

[@ArnisKaye]

Wonderful! This was exactly what I needed for my lab assignment. Thanks.

[@ScottBrande]

Glad it helped you.

[@Quentello]

Tremendous, thank you! Love your voice by the way.

[@ScottBrande]

Thanks for your comment. Glad that it was helpful to you. Maybe I should do radio! (just kidding).

[@Quentello]

It would suit you well! Haha, take care :)

Thank you! I had a geography mapping class, and this is part of the lab but the video they showed us did not help. You made it so much easier to understand!!!

[@ScottBrande]

Glad that my video helped you.

[@Discordie]

That was extremely fascinating and well explained. Thank you for teaching me something new today!

[@ScottBrande]

Thanks for your comment. Something new every day makes every day special.

[@sakeenahniazi7528]

Thank you so much! My geo teacher told us to google it and got mad that we didn't understand the google definition. I've got an assignment and contour lines are a huge part of it, so this helps so much!

[@ScottBrande]

Thanks for letting me know this helped you for your class.

[@AIRevealed]

This helped a TON on my geo class!

Studying architectural technology. Have to set out, take spot levels and draw a contour map for the first time this week. You've helped me more in 5 minutes than my lecturer! Thanks so much. Do you have an videos about how to close a survey? The quick and complete check methods?

[@ScottBrande]

Hi Nico. Glad my video helped you with a quick start in drawing contour lines. Sorry I don't have any videos to close a survey, as I don't teach that in my geology class. Good luck with your studies.

[@nirajreddy2435]

Beautifully explained Scott. Job well done!

This ia an excellent video

[@sarahlf]

This was very helpful, thank you! Is the contour interval here 5?

[@ScottBrande]

Correct. For this map. Others may have different contour intervals.

[@divyamadan00]

Sir were those points were assumed ? And sir your voice is great

[@habtamuworke750]

Thank you so much sir! This cleared up a lot for me!! But how about it's accuracy?

[@ScottBrande]

This "quick-and-dirty" method is not very accurate, as it depends on your eyeball assessment of distances, compared to a computer. However, for the introductory student, it is a good way to quickly learn how the lines are positioned. Thanks for your comment.

Hi..How to draw the contour correctly in google earth pro (or any platform you can recommend) to draw the coordinates ... please help ...

[@ScottBrande]

I provided instructions for locating and drawing contour lines on a map that displays points labeled with the elevation at a spot. On a piece of paper, one draws the line by hand while eyeballing the spot elevations. I can't help you with mechanics of drawing a line in Google Earth Pro or some other platform because that would require features for drawing lines specific to the software. However, if this were my assignment, what I would do is a quick-and-dirty substitute method. How about taking a screen capture of the area on which contours lines are to be drawn? You could do this easily in Windows with the Paint app, or Snip-and-Sketch, or other apps. Then you could draw lines using the mouse or a pen if you have a tablet. Or, you could print the screen capture and draw the lines by hand with a pencil, as I illustrated in my video. Then I would take a picture of my scan/map with lines and submit it for the assignment. I'm not familiar with Apple apps for screen capture and line drawing. Regards, Scott Brande

[@osmannuri8473]

@@ScottBrande thank you very much Mr. Scott Brande .. I am very happy that you gave me the answer, best regards.

[@skyacaniadev2229]

Nice voice. But are those points guestimated?

[@ScottBrande]

Of course. Drawn quickly by eye to illustrate the procedure.

Sir I am not understand the draw of contour line by Radial line method

[@ScottBrande]

This is not the "radial line" method. This method uses estimates of position between two points. Regards.

[@surjanbist7969]

Yaa ! I know sir but I search the Radial line method in youtube but I were not find so I comment you because I think you help me

[@ScottBrande]

I cannot help you with the "radial line" method. Sorry.

Contour survey Bangla language please

[@ScottBrande]

If you have someone who could do the translation, write me back. I'd be happy to try to re-produce my video in that language.

[@afishinsea950]

so why ignore the 95s between the 80s-100s

[@ScottBrande]

The final green line is an approximate 95 ft contour line. There are no other locations where 95 would be present on this map but not on or near the green contour line.

I get it now, thanks a lot. gotta do this for a geology homework. I appreciate it! @@ScottBrande
