Landslide Intelligence — The Evidence Edition

For decades, landslide susceptibility mapping answered one question: where is terrain most likely to fail? That question still matters.

A bibliometric review of 2,002 peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025, supported by 12 additional studies, documents a clear evolution from conventional GIS-based susceptibility mapping toward an integrated environment combining GIS, remote sensing, machine learning and Earth observation. This edition traces what that shift means for local governments managing real infrastructure risk — and separates measured outcomes from forecasts and vendor case studies.
