Understanding the concept of scale is important. The topographic map has a scale of 1 : 50 000 while the orthophoto map has a scale of 1 : 10 000. This means that the orthophoto map will show a feature to be 5 times larger than the same feature on the topographic map.
Explanation:
The topographic mapis a smaller scale map so everything is shown in more detail whereas an orthophotois a larger scale map and only certain things are shown.
