Landslide hazard and risk assessment and their application in risk management and landuse planning in eastern flank of Menoreh Mountains, Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia
TLDR
In this article, a landslide hazard and risk assessment that will be useful for risk prevention and landuse planning in the Menoreh Mountains in Yogyakarta has been presented to evaluate the ways to map landslide risk in order to improve the risk mitigation.Abstract:
The Menoreh Mountains in Yogyakarta are severely affected by landslides. Due to the high population densities, mass movements are generally damaging and fatal. More than other Javanese mountains, the Menoreh Mountains cumulate several factors causing landslides. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the ways to map landslide risk in order to improve the risk mitigation. The objectives of this paper are to provide landslide hazard and risk assessment that will be useful for risk prevention and landuse planning in the Menoreh Mountains. So far, risk management has been developed by the Research Centre for Disasters Gadjah Mada University in collaboration with the Regional Development Planner (BAPPEDA), which carries out fundamental and applied researches. The results of the studies have been integrated in the risk prevention and landuse planning in order to improve the integrated landslide mitigation programme.read more

Spatial Landslide Risk Assessment at Phuentsholing, Bhutan
TL;DR: In this paper, a landslide hazard map was generated by determining spatial and temporal probabilities for the study region, where the contributing factors were divided into various classes and the percentage of landslide occurrence under each class was calculated to understand its contributing significance.

GIS techniques and statistical models in evaluating landslide hazard
TL;DR: In this article, a small drainage basin located in Central Italy, relevant geological and geomorphological factors were collected and processed by applying GIS technology, which both generate high-fidelity digital terrain models and automatically partition the terrain into main slope-units.
