Against this background, the monitoring activity of the time behavior of the constructions became a stage in the life of these structures, started since the completion of foundations, and running their entire life cycle. In this context, techniques and instruments that are considered classics have been partially replaced, appearing new methods, new equipment and also genuine monitoring manager systems of land and constructions. In most cases, new technologies have emerged from specific needs, monitoring the execution and then the time behavior of a very high bridge or construction, but many of them may become universal in so far as they are known, tested and validated.Through this work I proposed, firstly, to fill this informational gap, to seek and know the most relevant achievements in the field, to systemize, categorize and then present them here. For it I had to reconsider the monitoring activity of the land and constructions, launching the concept of monitoring in three segments (static, quasistatic-quasidynamic, dynamic), relative to the structure response speed to stress. Thus appeared the concept of kinematic topography, as a new chapter of engineering topography
