Isohyets



This map has isohyets, superimposed on a topographic map.  Isohyets indicate the amount of precipitation over the span of a year's time, which is equal, in a specific location, as indicated on the map.  The measurement used depends on how the map maker intends to measure the precipitation and can be any form of liquid measurement.
