| has gloss | eng: Hypsometry is the measurement of land elevation relative to sea level . Bathymetry is the underwater equivalent. A hypsometer is an instrument used in hypsometry, which estimates the elevation by boiling water - water boils at different temperatures depending on the air pressure, and thus altitude. |

| has gloss | deu: Die Hypsometrie ist ein Verfahren zur Darstellung von Höhen in Karten. Verschiedene Höhen werden dadurch durch verschiedene Farben (farbige Höhenschichten) symbolisiert. Die Farbskala wird nach bestimmten Regeln festgesetzt. Üblich sind Farbskalen, deren Farben der natürliche Bedeckung oder der Farbwahrnehmung aus der Luft entsprechen. Eine sehr gebräuchliche Skala geht von grün (wie Gras) im Flachland über gelb, braun (Krüppelgehölz), grau (Gestein) zu weiß (Schnee). |
