An outcrop site is a place where the bedrock or superficial deposits previously covered under the soil have become locally exposed and are directly accessible to analysis. This can be due to tectonic movements, erosion from wind or precipitation or changes in vegetation, or even by excavation.

See also natural=bedrock for any areas of visible bedrock.
