This line is represented by isopleth, isohaline, isohyets, isobars, and isorhythm, etc. Iso means equal. It is a function of variables of x and y on a plane surface.

Used to create a 3 dimensional model of the earth on a plain sheet of paper. Like Isopleths which are used to show precipitation, and the map drawn to show this is a choropleth map.
