With SPM techniques, we can often identify the surface composition of atoms using the cross-section or size of the atom itself. In XPS, we can also perform such analysis, although typically with greater sensitivity and through a completely different mechanism. Why is it possible to identify individual elements with XPS based on binding energies? (Hint: why are X-rays used to perform photoelectron spectroscopy, and not a lower energy photon source?)
