Remote Sensing and Landslide Susceptibility

This Training Webinar from NASA ARSET introduces the core concepts of landslide risk mapping, highlighting the geophysical and meteorological drivers that contribute to landslide hazards. It demonstrates how satellite data – both optical and radar – can be used to detect and monitor landslides and to assess areas susceptible to future events. The content covers how to select appropriate Earth observation and model data to support landslide science and disaster preparedness. It also explains methods for mapping past landslides using remote sensing, including the application of automated tools for generating inventories and supporting ongoing monitoring efforts.
