Producing landslide susceptibility maps by applying expert knowledge in a GIS - based environment.
Résumé
In this paper two semi - quantative approaches, from the domain of Multi criteria decision analysis, such as Rock Engineering Systems (RES) and Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) are implemented for weighting and ranking landslide related factors in an objective manner. Through the use of GIS these approaches provide a highly accurate landslide susceptibility map. For this purpose and in order to automate the process, the Expert Knowledge for Landslide Assessment Tool (EKLATool) was developed as an extension tightly integrated in the ArcMap environment, using ArcObjects and Visual Basic script codes. The EKLATool was implemented in an area of Xanthi Prefecture, Greece, where a spatial database of landslide incidence was available
