Isopach

http://higheredbcs.wiley.com/legacy/college/levin/0471697435/chap_tut/chaps/chapter10-06.html
Above is an example of an isopach map which is used to show different variations in thickness within a certain stratum. These are also contour lines that show equal thickness over an area and are utilized many times in sedimentology and in stratigraphy. This map shows Eastern United States and its stratum levels.
