The Right Tool for the Job: The North Carolina Geological Survey’s Landslide Hazard Maps Jennifer B. Bauer, L.G. Appalachian Landslide Consultants, PLLC Co-Authors/Former NCGS Landslide Mapping Team: Rick Wooten, Anne Witt, Ken Gillon, Tommy Douglas, Stephen Fuemmeler

The Tool III. Map Distribution and Public Outreach NCGS Landslide Mapping Program II. Create Landslide Hazard Mapping Products I. Develop Landslide Inventory

I. Landslide Inventory Aerial Photographs LiDAR Field Verification Watauga Buncombe Henderson Macon 3,294 3,251

I. Landslide Inventory Remote Sensing and Field Verification 2005 orthophoto and 1940 aerial photo LiDAR DEM Field Work

I. Landslide Inventory Slope Movement – Slope Movement Deposit Geodatabase Information collected includes: Location Data Damage/Movement History Geomorphic Data Rock Information Soil data Site Hydrology

Stability Index Map – where landslides might start Potential Debris Flow Pathways Map – where landslides might go II. Landslide Hazard Mapping Products Slope Movements - Slope Movement Deposits Map– where landslides have occurred or are occurring.

II. Landslide Hazard Mapping Products Slope Movement – Slope Movement Deposits Map Slope movement deposit Slope movement initiation zone Slope movement outlines BRP 421

BRP II. Landslide Hazard Mapping Products Stability Index Map (SINMAP) SINMAP Program by Pack et al. 1998
