This dimension groups landforms by how high or how large each one is. Wikipedia notes that "landforms together make up a given terrain, and their arrangement in the landscape is known as topography," and elevation is one of the clearest ways that arrangement can be measured. Browsing by elevation or size band separates towering features from modest ones within the same landform type.
