We exhibit a ﹩500\times 500{({h}^{-1}\mathrm{Mpc})}^{2}﹩ subset of a Gaussian random field as a heat map. The field has a flat power spectrum with a Gaussian smoothing kernel. Our algorithm generates a bounding perimeter of constant ν; we exhibit two examples, ν = σ₀ and ν = 1.4σ₀, as black/red contours.
