A creepmeter is an instrument used to measure the slow, gradual movement of the Earth's surface, typically associated with geological processes such as landslides, faults, or other types of earth deformation. Creep refers to the slow, continuous movement of soil and rock, which can occur over a long period. Creepmeters often consist of a device that is anchored to a stable point, with a measuring tool that can detect the distance between the anchor point and the point being monitored.
