Planimetric maps are two dimensional maps that show no relief. They focus on the horizontal positions of features instead of the elevations. These maps are most helpful when trying to navigate through a location like city streets, where the elevation is of no concern. This map is of Vancouver, Washington and shows the positions of all the streets in the city.
