Planimetric map

 

(Click the Planimetric map link on the left) 


The map is a good example of a planimetric map because it is taken from a birds eye view showing only the horizontal features and does not show any elevation. The map shows the lay out of a city with multiple neighborhoods, parks and shopping areas. This map would be useful as a road map as well as a map to see the distance between two places within the city.
