I know...the underwater areas at the upper-left in particular are much 
lower resolution than other places, and that's purely game-data issue. 
I guess they thought nobody'd notice.

That's what I meant; if you have a donut-shaped hill, so that it has two 
concentric rings that are actually the same altitude, with the centre 
being a divot, it will look identical to a hill that's taller and 
crosses the next elevation line up.

Any way of checking the slope direction/comparing the height 
before/after the contour line, then generating perpendicular 
inward-pointing ticks for depressions?
