A geologic map is actually a form of topographic map, but in this case it shows the type of sediment or rock outcrops exposed at the Earth’s surface, along with the contour lines. The information on these maps can range from the rock type and age to the orientation of rock layers and major (and sometimes minor) geologic features.
