SlideforMAP - Shallow landslide simulation at regional scale

SlideforMAP (bèta version) is a probabilistic model to assess shallow landslide probability on a regional scale with an explicit focus on vegetation scenarios. SlideforMAP uses a finite slope stability calculation that includes the role of root reinforcement both lateral and basal, and soil compression at the toe. SlideforMAP generates a large number of randomly positioned landslides on the raster with randomly generated soil properties, soil thickness, and landslide area to compute the probability of failure at the regional scale. Root reinforcement can be taken into account by either using single-tree detection data available for 10 different tree species, or a land-use raster.
