Description
Summary:Landslide is the main disaster in the mountainous area. Based on landslide information content models of remote sensing, the work used the aerial and space remote sensing of UltraCamXp WA, Beijing-1 and Landsat images in Wudang, Guiyang to obtain the relative relief, slope, curvature of bedding slope, LUCC, geology and TWI. Finally, we analyzed the spatial susceptibility in the research area. Results showed that there were 42, 56 and 46 potential landslide groups in the high, higher and medium risk regions. The controlling factors of landslides in Wudang, Guiyang refer to the precipitation and precipitation intensity. The densely-populated regions also have the high risk of landslide, and the risk of landslide generally decreases from cities to rural areas. Through the space prediction research of landslide disasters, it is expected to provide valuable protection for regional security and harmonious development, and then sustainable development of Guizhou Province.
