Complete the contour map by drawing in the contour lines at 20 m intervals, by interpolating
between the point elevations.
2. Using Figure 2: Contour Map of Neverneverland (note: the shaded area is at sea level)
(7) a) On the map label all of the contours.
(12) b) Locate on the map and label with the corresponding letter the following features:
A) plateau G) convex slope
B) conical hill H) spit
C) V-shaped valley I) lagoon
D) floodplain with meandering stream J) escarpment
E) col K) dip slope
F) concave slope L) tributaries
(6) c) Calculate the GRADIENT between the points on Figure 2. Show your calculations:
i) A-B
ii) C-D
