The map shown above is an example of a DEM map. DEMs are examples of U.S. Geologic Survey topographic map. This means that they are georectified and can be used to locate places geographically. DEM are mainly used to show surface elevations, and often use colors and shading to do so. The three-dimensional shape of the rocky land mass in the image above is expressed through pixels and a sufficient resolution.
