Such inclinometers are, for instance, used for monitoring volcanoes, or for measuring the depth and rate of landslide movement. Measuring movements in walls or the ground in civil engineering projects. Determining the dip of beds or strata, or the slope of an embankment or cutting; a kind of plumb level. Some automotive safety systems.

Although they had been used for other applications such as volcano monitoring, they have distinct disadvantages, such as their huge length and sensitivity to air currents. Even in dams, they are slowly being replaced by the modern electronic tiltmeter. Volcano and Earth movement monitoring then used the water-tube, long baseline tiltmeter. [2]

Regolith mapping can also be used to determine disrupted natural landscapes in aerial photographs. [1] For example, agricultural terraces , which refers to the level land surfaces divided by short back slopes and concrete barriers, is one of the disrupted landscapes. [ 1 ]
A supervised classification is a system of classification in which the user builds a series of randomly generated training datasets or spectral signatures representing different land-use and land-cover (LULC) classes and applies these datasets in machine learning models to predict and spatially classify LULC patterns and evaluate classification accuracies.

Yield mapping or yield monitoring is a technique in agriculture of using GPS data to analyze variables such as crop yield and moisture content in a given field. It was developed in the 1990s and uses a combination of GPS technology and physical sensors, such as speedometers, to track crop yields, grain elevator speed, and combine speed.
