Planimetric Map
Plain and simple, planimetric maps show no relief. These types of maps, such as the one below of a portion of Tallahassee, only offer one dimension. Planimetric maps can be useful in figuring out direct road routes, but since they show no topographic features, this could be a problem if one needs to get around hills on their bike for instance. They show accurate horizontal distances between features and locations, but they lack topographic information.
