Effects of Digital Elevation Model resolution on evaluation of landslide susceptibility with a logistic regression model.

2013

The use of statistical methods together with the GIS technologies is currently one of the most efficient tools in the assessment of landslide susceptibility. The correlation between the physical phenomenon and its triggering factors depends on several factors, including the resolution at which the elevation data are represented in a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). The resolution becomes increasingly important as the use of DEM data is extended for spatial prediction of terrain attributes such as slope, aspect, plan and profile curvature, etc., which are considered as triggering factors of the landslides. Many methods exist in scientific literature to capture and model the correlation between…
