Towards a National-Scale Dataset of Geotechnical and Hydrological Soil Parameters for Shallow Landslide Modeling

One of the main constraints in assessing shallow landslide hazards through physically based models is need to characterize geotechnical parameters involved materials. Indeed, quantity and quality input data are closely related reliability results every model used, therefore acquisition a critical time-consuming step research activity. In this perspective, we reviewed all official certificates tests performed 30 years at Geotechnics Laboratory Earth Science Department (University Firenze, Italy), compiling dataset which 380 points accurately geolocated provide information about one or more used slope stability modeling. All past (in framework previous programs, agreements cooperation, support didactic activities) were gathered, homogenized, digitalized, geotagged. The on both on-site laboratory tests, it accounts for 40 attributes, among 13 descriptive (e.g., lithology location) 27 may be direct interest modeling as parameters. made openly available can useful scientists practitioners committed
