This is an example of a topographic map of Iwo Jima. This map shows natural and man-made features. Mt. Sarabachi is shown with contour lines as elevating high above the rest of the island. Man-made features are those showing the different runways located in the central part of the island.. This map contains critical information in excruciating detail that U.S. forces used for the assault on the island during World War 2.
