(a)Choropleth map
(b)Isopleth map
(c)Chorochromatic map
(d)Choroschematic map
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (b) Isopleth map
Isopleth maps join points of equal numerical value with isolines; a daily weather chart with isobars (lines of equal atmospheric pressure) is therefore an isopleth map. Choropleth, chorochromatic and choroschematic maps use shaded areas or symbols rather than isolines, so they do not fit.
