Isopach

http://www.printmag.com/design-inspiration/contour-maps-gone-3d/
Description:  Isopach maps are used to help assist Geologists.  These maps portray areas of equal thickness using contour lines and illustrate the thickness variations of a tabular unit layer or stratum. In this example is shows the range of ash spread out in the surrounding area as a result of a volcano in Nicaragua.
