| Summary: | The study area is a part of Lojing and it is lies between latitude 4° 45’ 30” N – 4° 49’ 0” N and
longitude 101° 45’ 30” E – 101° 48’ 30”E. This study was focused on assessing of vulnerable
locations of landslide based on satellite imageries of different years (2006, 2014 and 2015) which
selected for visual interpretation and vegetation indices (VIs). As a result, there were 18 locations
of landslide determined which landslide had occurred. With the aid of historical satellite imagery
and the obtained quantitative data, the areas for landslide occurred were detected. Besides, the
approach of remote sensing technique in landslide assessment was defined in terms of the early
precautions for landslides, thus, the lost from landsides can be reduced. Furthermore, the condition
of existing landslide areas was monitored by referring to the satellite imagery. This study can
helpful to develop the inhabitant of the area and as well as to improve the poverty eradication. |
