Isopach
Isopaches are points that connect lines of equal thickness of a geological layer formation or group of formations. They are often used on sediment, petroleum and volcanoes.This is an example of an Isopach map of sediment rock being deformed by faults in New Zealand. The lines follow the thickness of the land which measures how much is being lost.
