In-situ stresses were measured using different methods in several boreholes located in Japan and they were generally consistent with the plate tectonic model despite topographical disturbances (Koide, 1987). Results showed that even the shallow stress measurements reflect to some extent the tectonic stresses and monitoring stress changes can detect the build-up of tectonic stress which may cause earthquake. Also, stress measurements help detect areas with abnormal state of stress and provides a better understanding of the tectonic processes responsible for earthquakes.
