QUESTION

Why do contour lines never cross on a topographic map?

Contour lines are used to represent elevation on a contour map.

Each contour line represents a different elevation, and you can't have two different elevations at the same point.

An example would be how 500 meters above sea level will never be equivalent to 1000 meters above sea level.
