A point whose elevation is noted on a map

• A. Spot height
• B. Series maps
• C. Squeeze
• D. Symbols

Answer: (A)

A spot height is a specific point on a map where the exact elevation above a reference level is given. This marking shows the true height at that precise location, often shown as a small symbol (like a dot or cross) with a number next to it indicating meters. It’s used when a contour line wouldn’t capture the height accurately at that spot or when surveyed accuracy is needed for a particular point. The other terms aren’t about naming a precise elevation at a single point: series maps refer to the publication set, symbols are the general marks used to depict features, and squeeze isn’t the term for noting an elevation.
