Why do contour lines never cross on a topographic map?

Sagot :

AL2006
A contour line consists of points that are all at the same elevation, and each line has a different elevation. If two lines crossed, the point where they cross would be a point on both lines, so it would be a point that has two different elevations. That can't exist.
