Isolines are implicit profiles through a body, they give a visual appreciation of whether or not the surface of the body's smooth. They're orthographic to each other if the body's cuboid, latitudinal/longitudinal if it's ellipsoid, you can specify the density to improve resolution, and, because they're implicit, they're associated with the surface

Thanks murray - to be honest as dumb as it sounds, i swear i thought they were for subdividing a body to shape it with push-pull etc.
