A web-based interactive map with a consistent set of landslide data. The searchable map includes contributions from many local, state, and federal agencies and provides links to the original digital inventory files for further information.
Information on areas susceptible to failure by landsliding is available in many general geologic maps and reports. However, it is commonly presented in complex, technical language, together with data not connected with slope stability. This derivative map is intended to convey such information in nontechnical form so that it will be intelligible to the non-geologist. It portrays only those geol
The map shows the distribution of landslide and other surficial deposits by presenting the writer's best judgement regarding the origins of the various parts of the present landscape. It is based completely on the interpretation of aerial photographs through a stereoscope, which permits a three-dimentional relief model of the ground surface to be seen, enables the geologist to study and interpret
