Study of effect of seismic displacements on landslide susceptibility zonation (LSZ) in Garhwal Himalayan region of India using GIS and remote sensing techniques
Pre- and post-earthquake LSZ maps are prepared and analyzed. Area falling in high susceptibility zone increases after the seismic event. Preparation of seismic displacement map using fault dislocation theory. Analysis of seismic displacements on LSZ distribution in GIS environment. Landslide increased when causative factors support the seismic displacements.
