Discontinuity surveys help in mapping the joints, fractures, and bedding planes in the rock mass, which are critical in assessing the stability of rock slopes.

Don't forget that orientation data from these surveys are vital for kinematic analysis.

What's the significance of water in these assessments? Not just the mechanical discontinuity, right?
