Landslide Susceptibility Map Of Martin County, Kentucky, Matthew C. Crawford, Hudson J. Koch, Jason M. Dortch, William C. Haneberg Sep 2022

Landslide Susceptibility Map Of Martin County, Kentucky, Matthew C. Crawford, Hudson J. Koch, Jason M. Dortch, William C. Haneberg

Report of Investigations--KGS

The purpose of this map is to identify landslide-prone areas in Martin County in order to provide the public, as well as local and state government agencies, with information about where landslides are likely to occur. This map represents geomorphic-based susceptibility modeling that focuses on physical slope characteristics and morphology, the quality of which is dependent on data accuracy and resolution of terrain models. The availability of high-resolution (5-ft digital elevation model) lidar derived datasets allows for the generation of terrain elevation derivatives such as hillshades, slope, aspect, curvature, and roughness, as well as identification of existing landslide deposits. These …
