Landslide Susceptibility Analysis In Kabandungan District And Salak Geothermal Field, West Java, Misbahudin Misbahudin

Jurnal Geografi Lingkungan Tropik (Journal of Geography of Tropical Environments)

Landslide hazards can be caused by several factors such as lithology, land cover, rainfall, slope, curvature, aspect, distance from river and road. In this study, a landslide susceptibility mapping was carried out using a Geographical Information System (GIS) in Kabandungan District and Salak Geothermal Field, West Java. The data used consisted of an inventory of points and landslide areas totalling 247 using a visual collection of Google Earth imagery. The Weight of Evidence (WoE) model is used to select parameters that cause landslides and to produce landslide vulnerability maps. The results of modeling indicate a positive relationship between selective factors …
