Landslide inventories show landslide locations (for example, points) and might show the dimensions and geographical extent of each landslide (for example, as mapped headscarps or total landslide areas). One clue to the location of future landsliding is the distribution of past movement, so maps that show the location and size of landslides are helpful in predicting the hazard for an area.
The inventories here were identified from a combination of field observations, satellite and airborne optical imagery, digital elevation models, and local lidar maps (as available). The inventories are mostly point data, but a few landslides were mapped in more detail. No single inventory is exhaustive nor complete, nor should it be considered a statistically representative sample of landslides in this region.
