Landslide types and causes Introduction to GIS Introduction to landslidesPart 2: Use of Remote sensing for landslide mapping Cees van Westen International Institute for Aerospace Survey and Earth Sciences (ITC), Enschede, The Netherlands. E-mail: westen@itc.nl Landslide mapping Landslides are directly affecting the ground surface, so the application of remote sensing techniques is very suited to slope instability studies. The use of remote sensing images is particular useful when stereo images are used: typical morphological features of landslides. Also the overall terrain conditions, determining the susceptibility of a site to be subject to sliding, can profitably be interpreted from remote sensing data. The term remote sensing is used here in its widest sense, including aerial photography, as well as imagery obtained by satellites or any other remote sensing technique. Landslide mapping Landslide inventory mapping uses: aerial photo satellite interpretation, ground survey, and/or a database of historical occurrences of landslides. The final product gives the spatial distribution of mass movements, represented either at scale or as points. When multitemporal airborne or satellite image analysis was performed, these maps can also show landslide activity. Short repetition: EM spectrum Landslide mapping Current landslide inventory maps are not standardized. They are published at different scales with various levels of details. Attention should be paid to the image specifications required for an adequate interpretation: Spatial resolution Spectral resolution Temporal resolution Spatial resolution (1) The interpretability of landslides from remote sensing images depends in the first place on the spatial resolution of the images in relation to the size of the features which are characterising the slope movement and which can be recognised or identified. The following aspects are important for recognizing landslides from remote sensing images: Con
