Hypsometric maps

http://www.google.com/

This Hysometric map is of the small island of borneo the contour of Borneo with the green color being closer to sea level and then gaining elevation as you move to the yellow portions of the map. These maps are useful when you need to know the terrain so you dont go hiking and expect to be on flat surface and then find a huge mountain in front of you.
