An isoline map is a map that has continuous lines joining points of the same value. Isolines are used to show us the different regions on a map that use isolines to determine in the case of the map shown above, wind speeds. You are able to quickly determine the wind speeds around the United States because each region is represented a certain color that tells us which areas had the highest wind speed on the day.
