PLANIMETRIC MAP

This is an image of a black and white Planimetric Map. Planimetric maps are surface maps with no relief features. The information they show is two dimensional; therefore it is not a contour map as there is no three dimensional contrast shown.

This image is a Planimetric Map of Lake George, New York. It includes information such as historical locations and landmarks, some significant street names, marinas, churches. This is an especially helpful map to assist with local travel in that area.
