Extended Definition: HYPSOMETRIC

Hypsometric

Hypsometric is a scientific term relating to the measurement of heights. The term originates from the Greek word ὕψος "hypsos" meaning height and the common English root "-metric" referring to measurements.

  • Hypsometric curve is a histogram of elevations of a landscape
  • Hypsometric equation relates pressure to height in the atmosphere
  • Hypsometric tints are a technique of showing elevation on maps

A Hypsometer is an instrument for measuring altitude using the boiling point of a liquid.
