Three case studles are pres e n t ~ briefly, showing the role of monitcrir~: i) slope atability problem caused by irdlscriminate cutting of an access road, 2) slope stability problems during dam construction, 3) problem with the stability of steep cut slopes of a dam diversion cha~-l.

Defermarion measurements in boreholes a~i shafts are also discussed.
