Isotachs are maps in which show wind speed systems on a map, where lines are connecting points of equal wind speed throughout a given region, measured either in miles per hour or meters per second. The above map is considered an isotach map because it contains lines connecting points of equal wind speed throughout the United States, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, etc, made clear and visible in the legend to the right, which records the wind speed of these countries in mph and m/s.
