Not necessarily but yes, it can be. A contour interval is the difference in elevation between successive contours, while a vertical interval is the distance between any two contours. So yeah, it can be the same sometimes.
if you want to split a number into equal intervals, start with a number 100 meters. Now find how how many intervals you want 4 intervals Then divide your number by the number of intervals. 100/4 = 25...
The difference in elevation represented by the space between adjacent contour lines. - Mrs. Brandilynn Ramos! :)- THE ELEVATION DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TWO ADJACENT CONTOUR LINES
Contour Lines are the imaginary lines drawn on a map to join places having same height above sea level. Contour Interval is the interval between two successive contours.
Notice the pattern around that contour line. Then determine the interval that the surrounding contour lines are increasing or decreasing by. Ex. 50 100 150 200, the contour interval would then be 50
The contour lines on a map indicate changes in elevation above sea level (or below, occasionally). The amount of change in elevation between lines is shown on the map legend, and will vary depending...
