From there, it's important
to take note of the
following questions:
Science and technology used
to prepare for landslides
Geographic Information Transducer
System (GIS)
A large number of studies have focused on using
digital technologies such as GIS, transducer, or
statistical models to evaluate and map the
vulnerability of regions to landslides to provide
support for landslide management.
The impact of landslides
Landslides can overwhelm, and even
pollute streams and waterbodies with
excess sediment. In extreme cases they
can dam streams and rivers, impacting
both water quality and fish habitat.
Landslides can wipe out large tracts of
forest, destroy wildlife habitat, and
remove productive soils from slopes.
Landslides can cause high mortality and
injuries from rapidly flowing water and debris.
The most common cause of death in a landslide
is trauma or suffocation by entrapment.
Broken power, water, gas or sewage pipes can
also result in injury or illness in the population
affected, such as water-borne diseases,
electrocution or lacerations from falling debris.
People affected by landslides can also have
short- and long-term mental health effects due
to loss of family, property, livestock or crops.
