Global Landslides Map Poster

This global landslides density map visualises the spatial distribution of landslide occurrences, highlighting regions with high susceptibility and frequency. The map is generated using historical landslide data, satellite imagery, and geospatial analysis to identify patterns related to terrain, rainfall, seismic activity, and human factors. Perfect for shools, universities, and research centres Key Features: Data Sources: Compiled from satellite monitoring (NASA, USGS, ESA), geological surveys, and disaster databases (e.g., NOAA, GDACS). Visualisation: Heatmap or kernel density estimation (KDE) to show landslide concentration. Contributing Factors: Overlays of rainfall intensity, slope steepness, soil type, seismic zones, and deforestation for context. Time Frame: Can include real-time alerts (e.g., after heavy rainfall) or historical records (past decades). Risk Assessment: Classifies regions by low, moderate, high, and very high landslide susceptibility. Interactive Features: Some maps allow filtering by trigger (earthquake, rainfall, human activity), date, or severity. Applications: Natural hazard monitoring & early warning systems Infrastructure planning (roads, dams, urban development) Disaster risk reduction & emergency response Climate change impact studies Geological and environmental research
