By assessing causes of and factors contributing to slope movement, surface observation and geologic mapping of slopes provide the basis for subsurface investigations and engineering analyses that follow. Accurate interpretation of the surface features of a landslide can be used to evaluate the mode of movement, judge the direction and rate of movement, and estimate the geometry of the slip surface. Surface observation and geologic mapping should be done on slopes with active or inactive landslides and on slopes with no evidence of past landslides to provide a basis for evaluation of the likelihood of new or renewed slope movement. Information obtained through surface observation and geologic mapping of a particular site extends and utilizes knowledge of landslide types and processes discussed in Chapter 3 and the recognition and identification procedures described in Chapter 8. The results of geologic mapping provide the basis for planning the subsurface investigations described in this chapter and for locating the instrumentation discussed in Chapter 11. The geologist should remain involved in the project during the subsurface investigation to aid in the correlation of surface and subsurface data. During the design of slope stabilization measures, discussed in Chapters 17 and 18, the geologist should be available to answer questions about the geology, and during construction the geologist should be on site to compare conditions encountered with those predicted. Basic tools and techniques needed in surface observation and geologic mapping include access to existing information, use of topographic maps and aerial photographs, use of aircraft for aerial reconnaissance, access to the field site, use of limited hardware and simple instruments, and the ability to observe and interpret geologic features caused by and related to slope instability. Some of the techniques that are described in this chapter are relatively new and have not received widespread exposure. Those techniques that are well known will be mentioned in the context of the chapter but not discussed in detail. A review of more sophisticated survey technology applicable to landslide evaluations is also included in this chapter.
