3.Slope failures leave discernible morphological or spectral features; most of them can be recognized, classified and mapped both in the field and through remote sensing. 15

4.The morphological signature of a landslide depends on the type (i.e. rock fall, slide, flow, etc.) and the rate of motion of the mass movement. 15

5.Landslides do not occur randomly or by chance. Slope failure is controlled by mechanical laws that can be determined empirically, statistically or in a deterministic fashion. 15

6.The geological principle of uniformitarianism infers that “the past and present are keys to the future.” I.e. landslides are more likely to occur under the conditions that led to past instability. 15

1.Weights are calculated using the following hazard index method and described further in Table 2. (van Westen, 1997): 15

7.Landslide areas are compared with parameter maps to isolate landslide areas in each parameter class. The areas of each individual parameter class are recorded, as well as the areas of the landslides within them. The total area of the area of interest and the total area of landslides in the area of interest are also calculated. Landslide density values for each parameter class and the total landslide density for the area of interest are calculated. The density ratio for each parameter is calculated and the natural log of this value is calculated. This produces weightings for each parameter class. 15

8.To create the weighting maps for each data type, a new file must be created for each data type, and each parameter value is replaced with the weighting that was calculated. 17

9.To produce the final map, all individual weighting maps for each data type are summed together, to find the final susceptibility values for the area. 17
