Abstract :
Slope stability and slope monitoring have
become very common terms in opencast mines.
Engineers, research scholars and scientists are inventing,
innovating and publishing research articles on novel slope
stabilization and slope monitoring ideas. The advent of
Wireless sensors and IoT have drastically improved the
standards of slope management. Considerably it has a
major contribution to the cost reduction in the slope
management system which lured small scale mining
companies to adopt them. Although it is admirable that
many mining firms have stepped forward to prioritize
mine safety and embrace different wireless sensor
networks (WSN) in slope management techniques, some
flaws still exist that should be addressed. Many slope
failures occur as a result of the collective influence of
different aspects thus a combination of sensors that
measures multi aspects of slope movement is
indispensable. Acquiring acquaintance with several
aspects of slope failure paves the way to enhance the slope
monitoring system. So, in this paper, a detailed study of
different factors affecting slope stability is discussed
