Totap surface area of Cuboid?
The total surface area (TSA) is determined by the sum of areas of its 6 faces - TSA = 2 (lw + wh + hl)
How do you calculate the square meters area of an oddly shaped area?
Geometric configurations that do not conform to standardized shapes (squares, triangles, circles, etc.) can still have their areas determined. They can be calculated by dividing the given parcel into known shapes (and thus formulae) and then calculating the areas of each, and combining their values.
What is the elevation between one contour line and the next one on a map?
It depends completely on the type of map and the scale of the map. Look several contour lines above and below the area of interest. Often, the elevation is printed on every 5th contour line. Divide the difference by the number of spaces between the two lines. Example, one contour line says "1000" and the next one with an elevation says "1500". If there are 4 lines in between these two, it is 100 ft per contour line. In some areas, you will need to follow a contour line around the map to track down the elevation of that line. Easier still, check the legend on the side or bottom of the map. The example showing the colors or symbols used may also tell the contour interval if it is consistent for the entire map.
How do you analyze contour data?
Your question is very broad, but I will attempt to answer it. If I don't give you the answer you are looking for, then perhaps you can resubmit it, with a more specifics. Please see the related link Generally, we obtain information from a contour map (a map with contour lines). The most common map is an elevation map, showing the height of a surface above a common datum (usually sea level). However, many types of data can be measured and contour maps developed from the data. Temperature and atmospheric pressure data can be contoured. Of course, it changes from day to day, so our map may be good for only one specific time period. See the related link for more on the different contour map. Contour maps are a means of understanding our data, and obtaining relavent information quickly. We can see regions of high and low values. If we are looking at an elevation map, these are the highest and lowest areas of a given region. If the countour lines are close together, this shows a high gradient or slope. For example, if our elevation map shows contours close together, this is area where the ground is sloping up or down. We can make calculations of areas and volumes. For example, we can estimate the area where the elevation is between two numbers, say 50 to 60 ft above sea level. Sometimes, to obtain accurate estimates of areas and volumes, we need to input the contour map into the computer, and let it make the calculations.
