23 Susceptibility map of the Basin Authority (2013 update) Advantages: - Automated and rapid method to evaluate landslide susceptibility - The possibility to identify the mechanism of failure provide important insights for the design of stabilization works - Rather than delimiting areas with a number of constraints and rules, the point above allows to develop engineering works, that necessarily must be based upon the results of the susceptibility evaluation - Methodology based on site analysis, but that can be easily managed at smaller scale, for preliminary assessment of the susceptibility to landslides Crucial points: - Presence of caves, and their effect on instability, cannot be neglected - In situ measurements remain necessary; they can be performed in sample areas, but in any case cannot be entirely substituted by remote sensing analyses
