The difference between scarp and slope in topographic survey

The steep slope is greater than or equal to 70 degrees. In the original landform, the landform area with a certain angle between the ground line and the horizontal plane is generally 10-30.

Steep slope refers to all kinds of natural and man-made steep slope sections with a slope of more than 70 degrees.

"Cutting head" refers to the sudden drop in elevation of the ground (river bed surface), similar to waterfall landform.

In the original landform, the landform area with a certain angle between the ground line and the horizontal plane is generally 10-30. Slope refers to all geological bodies with lateral free surfaces on the crust surface. It includes natural slopes and artificial slopes. The former is the product of the natural historical process of formation and evolution under various geological forces in a certain geological environment such as hillside, coast and river bank. The latter is excavated for some engineering and economic purposes of human beings, and is often formed on the basis of natural slopes, characterized by regular geometric shapes, such as cutting, open pit slope, canal (ditch) slope, etc.
