Cross-sections allow geographers to visualize and analyze the elevation profile of a landscape along a specific line or transect. This helps in understanding the topographic features, landform variations, and geological structure of a region. Cross-sections are particularly useful for identifying slopes, valleys, ridges, and other landforms that influence the movement of water, people, and wildlife.
