WG5 webinar “Landslide susceptibility and road-network connectivity with Machine Learning”

Recording of the WG5 meeting of 25 June 2024

Topic: Landslide susceptibility and road-network connectivity by means of Machine Learning

Joshua Dimasaka (Cambridge University, Centre for Risk in the Built Environment) presented his work on how landslide susceptibility and the associated road-network connectivity can be calculated with Machine Learning. And he showed a very illustrative application of his methods to the case of Norway.

The recorded presentation is available on our YouTube channel:

WG5 meeting on the role of wind in Hurricane prone regions for landslide early warning

NEWS received from
Manfred Stähli (WSL, Switzerland) and Ben Mirus (USGS, USA)

On February 3, 2023, a meeting of LandAware WG 5 “Innovations” addressed the role of wind speed and direction for landslide occurrence in Hurricane prone regions.

Guest speaker, Yuri Gorokhovich (Lehman College, City University of New York) illustrated how we are getting closer to predicting landslides in Hurricane prone regions in real-time using wind information.

The recorded presentation is available in the LandAware youtube channel

The next WG 5 meeting – with a completely different topic – will take place in May/June 2023.
