Combined systems of showing relief. We have discussed separately the merits of spot heights,hachures and hill-shading, contours, and colour layers. Inpractice several of these systems are generally used on onemap. Contours and hill-shading make an effective combination,and if the contours are drawn strongly they make it possibleto use oblique shading without much danger of the slope inthe shade looking steeper than the slope in the light. (SeePlate V.) Hill-shading combined with layers demands great skill inits application, or the shade changes the t
