| Abstract: | The assessment of landslide hazard and preparation of landslide hazard zonation map is
an imperative task in the area of disaster management. There are many methods used by
several workers in different parts of the globe. In most of the techniques though input
parameters are mostly the same, they differ in ranking the factors. In general the methods
are either based on the qualitative approach which dictates the weight assignment to the
factors based on the experience and expert knowledge or the statistical approach which
involve relationship between existing landslides and the factors. In India several hazard
zonation mapping have been carried out in different parts of Himalaya. The paper
presents few of the techniques used by the authors. |
