Isopleths

http://www.stonelions.com/Jacksonville.htm
Isopleths are lines connecting points of equal value on a map. This map uses isopleth lines to show the air dispersion of toxic chemicals averaged over a five year period (1961-1965). The isopleths provide a very clean method of showing this type of data, allowing the underlying landscape to remain clearly visible, and the impacted area to be clearly defined.
