Regional Road Network Resilience using Landslide Susceptibility Model
Implementing Partner: Build Change
Project name:Regional Road Network Resilience using Landslide Susceptibility Model in India
This study presents an advanced framework for landslide risk mapping, integrating probabilistic slope stability analysis with cutting-edge simulation techniques.
It optimizes probe point placement for precise data collection, addressing gaps in existing landslide maps of India’s Western Ghats.
By incorporating critical soil characteristics often overlooked in conventional assessments, this approach enhances risk prediction accuracy and strengthens infrastructure protection, ensuring safer road networks and more reliable disaster preparedness in landslide-prone regions.
