STD
2005/06/07		 HYPSOGRAPHIC_PORTRAYAL-
_TYPE		 CONNECTOR An arbitrary connector in a <NETWORK> of <CONTOUR>s, created to establish a zone of <<TERRAIN_ELEVATION>>s as a <POLYGONAL_FACE>, and not used to define any data or irreconcilable source data <REGION>s. 5 IR [FACC, Annex B, HQC:99] [SDLG], [DCW]
STD
2005/06/07		 HYPSOGRAPHIC_PORTRAYAL-
_TYPE		 INDEX Every fourth or fifth <LINE>, depending on the contour interval, is an index <CONTOUR>. An index <CONTOUR> is accentuated by increasing its line weight. With few exceptions, index <CONTOUR>s are continuous throughout a <MAP> even though the <CONTOUR>s may coalesce because of steep slopes. 8 IR [FACC, Annex B, HQC:1] [SDLG], [DCW]
STD
2005/06/07		 HYPSOGRAPHIC_PORTRAYAL-
_TYPE		 INTERM One of the three or four <LINE>s between adjacent <<<INDEX>>> <CONTOUR>s, having about half the line weight of an <<<INDEX>>> <CONTOUR>; intermediate. An intermediate <CONTOUR> is normally continuous throughout a <MAP>, but may be dropped or joined with an <<<INDEX>>> <CONTOUR> where the slope is steep and where there is insufficient space to show all of the intermediate <LINE>s. 11 IR [FACC, Annex B, HQC:2] [SDLG], [DCW]
