maps can be regarded conceptually as a special case of an isoline presentation. Such maps add a three-dimensional effect by fitting a raised surface to data values. Typically, an arbitrary grid is placed over the map and the number of incidents per grid cell are counted. These counts form the basis for what is, in effect, an isopleth map that is given its third, or z (vertical), dimension derived from the isoline values. ...

An equipotential surface of the gravity field. The force of gravity is everywhere perpendicular to this surface. The surface of a body of still water is a level surface. The surface of the ocean, if disturbances caused by tides, currents, winds, atmospheric pressure, and so on, are not considered, is a level surface. The surface of the geoid is a level surface. ...
