She got the first question wrong. It's D, there is another contour line for 560ft she traced over it when she was identifing the star (the star is in the middle of the 560ft contour line).
@@coda8566 It looked like a contour line to me also if it was a circle around the point it should be a different color i would've missed the question too
Watching this for the first time and I have to agree with you Coda8566. Ms. Kidder even said if it was 560 there would be another circle around the star. WELL there IS!!! So I would count that as 560, so the "*" would be 561-569.
Excellent review video on Topographic maps and the rules to follow. Two comments: First, as Coda8566 mentioned, the first practice question answer should be choice D. 561-569 not B , if you count the circle around the "*" as 560. Second, I am not convinced the lake shoreline is EXACTLY 460. I think this is an assumption on Ms. Kidder's part. I see it as LESS than 470 feet but greater than 460 feet.
Holland Hill. IS 560!!!! THE * is the position "your at"..... meaning the circle around.it.IS a Contour Line...... The Elevation you seek IS 560! Attention to Detail is all. Just as Aurora Hill w the Triangle is also w in the top Contour at 533 hill top.
I've just started on agtek earth work takeoff and sometimes I don't get all of the contour lines elevation and sometimes it was harder to determine whether it es going up or down , thanks for the insights
What a blessing l found this. The plat map for the land I am buying has contour lines showing a steep grade in back of the neighboring lot. But not mine. What a relief. I can rest assured I have a liveable backyard now.
