Planimetric Map

Planimetric Maps are a map of the Earth’s surface without any terrain, surface, or relief features. These features do not include water features because the relief is determined by the height above sea level. Point, line, and area symbols are used to create the base of a Planimetric Map.


The map shown is a Planimetric Map of the area surrounding Baker Street, London, England. There are no relief features shown in this map. The streets and water features are indicated on the map. Street Maps are the most common form of Planimetric Maps.
