Summary

The results of this study paper demonstrate that elevation and slope predominantly control both these landslide occurrences. The model predicts locations of ETL with higher accuracy than RTL. To understand the spatial characteristics and susceptibility of these ETL and RTL, delineation of the landslides by means of time variant satellite imageries, assessment of their spatial distribution and model their susceptibilities along the highway slopes was done. These landslide susceptibility maps and route comparisons provides a guidance towards further planning, monitoring, and implementing landslide risk mitigation measures for the governments.
