SERVICES

LANDSLIDE ASSESSMENT

Basic or detailed landslide susceptibility/hazard zonation for land use planning

SCIENTIFIC CONSULTING

Advice on basic/detailed landslide hazard assessment for land use planning (regional, municipal or local)

RISK ASSESSMENT

Quantitative landslide risk assessment for infrastructure projects: hazard, vulnerability and risk in terms of human and/or economic losses.

PHYSICALLY-BASED MODELING

Implementation of distributed physically-based models (e.g. TRIGRS, SLIP, Scoops3D) for landslide assessment.

RAINFALL THRESHOLD DEFINITION

Definition of rainfall thresholds for landslides using physically based or empirical-statistical models (for landslide early warning system)

EARLY WARNING SYSTEM

We develop systems (e.g. LandScient_EWS) for natural hazard monitoring and prediction.
