Hypsometric Map

This is a hypsometric map of France which was downloaded from
http://www.reliefshading.com/colors/hypsometric.html. Color shading on this map represents relief within the country. Shading varies with the higher elevations being brighter. As such, along the western coast there is very little relief with the most significant elevation being found on the Eastern side of the country.
