      A contour or contour line may be defined as the line of intersection of a level surface with the surface of the ground, which means every point of the contour line has the same elevation or altitude.

      The process of drawing or tracing contour lines on the surface of the earth is called contouring and the map upon which these lines are drawn or traced is called a contour map.

      The mapping and representing the elevation of land surfaces is referred to as contouring in surveying. It involves connecting points of equal elevation by drawing contour lines on a map. These lines assist with imagining the geology of the land, showing slopes, valleys, and inclines. Molding is fundamental for different applications, including land arranging, structural designing, and ecological examinations, as it gives an unmistakable comprehension of the territory’s shape and inclination.
