What is a scale that shows a large amount of detail?
It is large scale that shows a large amount of detail. No, we're not being funny, so let's look at a couple of things.If we do a cutaway drawing of a biological subject, say a cell, the larger we make the scale, the more detail we'll be able to include. Obviously the cell is a small structure, but if a drawing on a sheet of standard notebook paper (8 1/2" x 11") was pretty much filled up with the diagram, a good amount of detail could be seen. A drawing the size of a postage stamp would not begin to reveal as much detail.If we have to show a lot of area on a drawing, again we'd try for large scale. Should we wish to show a street map of, say New York City, a sheet of that notebook paper wouldn't help. The large map books contain hundreds of pages about the size of the notebook paper showing all the streets. Imagine cutting them all out and pasting them on, say, the floor of a gym. A large scale street map of New Your City would be laid out for inspection. Large scale allows more detail.

Reading and using statement of scale graphic scale and scale shown by representative fraction method in detail?
A statement of scale typically provides a written description of the relationship between a distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the Earth's surface. A graphic scale is a ruler-like graphic printed on a map that allows the user to measure distances directly. A representative fraction scale, sometimes called a fractional scale, represents the map scale as a ratio or fraction, such as 1:10,000, which conveys that one unit on the map equals 10,000 units on the Earth's surface.
