Slope can be calculated for

different location between the two contours
Slope will vary in each location
Slope is always classified in different classes
An Example:
Landuse Suitability Scale 1:100
0-4% V. Gentle slope Agriculture, Industrial
4-8 % Gentle Slope Residential
8-12% Med Slope Tourism, Residential, Services
12-25% Steep Slope Entertainment, Green spaces
25 – 40% Very Steep Slope No development
** The categories are not fixed and depends on terrain relief and the objective of the study

Cut & Fill Applications
Calculation of the cut-and-fill volumes is an essential component to any site

development project
Topographic data is required to estimate cut and-fill volumes
The basic calculation is the difference between the desired elevation and the
original elevations

Using the elevation data and the grid system, a three dimensional model of the terrain (
TIN, DEM) & the cut-and-fill volumes can be constructed
Volume equals the average of the cell height times the area of the cell
