Geology provides the foundation of whatever you are going to build on the site. Certain areas of the USA have what is called karst topography ...so, you would not want to build in these areas. The earth caves in and underneath are artesian water wells. If you have sold bedrock, you can build tall buildings and "earthquake proof" them because you can drill deep down and place rods that will stabilize the building during quakes.
