Topographic maps are used to show detailed and accurate graphic representations of features that appear on the Earth's surface. These maps show things from roads, buildings, and other urban, man-made developments to lakes, rivers, mountains, valleys, and other vegetated areas. Basically this type of map will provide a three-dimensional representation of earth's surface. This map is a Topographic map because it shows a representation of the surface(a mountain) in three dimensions through the use of contour lines.
