Post-explosion surface deformations were investigated at the certain objects in the Balapan area of the Semi-palatinsk test site after the fieldwork that consisted in the profile geomorphological survey and geodesic leveling. The surface man-made zoning was considered as an implicit imagery of the massif state change. Mass ground velocities were chosen as the indicator for the comparison of the relative heights changes as a result of the underground explosions and earthquakes. The obtained values of the displacement and the mass ground velocity during explosions were compared with the published data on earthquakes.

Key words: post-explosion surface change, relative heights, seismic dislocations, mass velocity, ground deformation, geodesic data
