Isobar


http://www.sercc.com/education_files/saer_ans.html

An isobar is a map that uses different lines to connect points of equal pressure on a weather map.  These maps which are measured in millibars, use the mean sea level pressure as a standard control.  This map displays different temperatures throughout the country using isobars to connect the different pressures.  This gives the map credibility in being considered an isobar map.
