In the area you have selected landslide susceptibility is classified as high according to the information that is currently available. This means that this area has rainfall patterns, terrain slope, geology, soil, land cover and (potentially) earthquakes that make localized landslides a frequent hazard phenomenon.
Feb 14, 2017 · Background Landslide hazard mapping is a fundamental tool for disaster management activities in fragile mountainous terrains. The main purpose of this study is to carry out landslide hazard assessment by weights-of-evidence modelling and prepare optimized mitigation map in the Higher Himalaya of Nepal. The modelling was performed within a geographical information system (GIS), to derive a ...
Landslide hazard assessment. Landslide hazard is a function of susceptibility (spatial propensity to landslide activity) and temporal frequency of landslide triggers, and its assessment may be done on local (individual slope), regional, national, continental, or even global scales. The most appropriate method in each scale depends on the extent ...
