  1. Is to provides near-real-time maps of landslide hazard following large

    earthquakes. These are intended to provide tools for post-distaster response, analysis and research. Our Research
  2. What is Landslides? A landslide, also known as a landslip,

    is a geological phenomenon that includes a wide range of ground movements, such as rockfalls, deep failure of slopes, and shallow debris flows. Landslides can occur in offshore, coastal and onshore environments. Although the action of gravity is the primary driving force for a landslide to occur, there are other contributing factors affecting the original slope stability. Typically, pre-conditional factors build up specific sub-surface conditions that make the area/ slope prone to failure, whereas the actual landslide
