Landslide Susceptibility Mapping Using GIS-based Vector Grid File (VGF) Validating with InSAR Techniques: Three Gorges, Yangtze River (China)

چکیده
A landslide susceptibility assessment for the Three Gorges (TG) region (China) was performed in a Geographical Information System (GIS) environment and Persistent Scatterer (PS) InSAR derived displacements were used for validation purposes. Badong County of TG was chosen as case study field. Landslide parameters were derived from two datasets. The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) Global Digital Elevation Map (GDEM) was used to calculate slope geometry parameters (slope, aspect, drainage, and lineament), while geology and vegetation cover were obtained from Landsat and ASTER data. The majority of historical landslides occurred in the sandstone-shale-claystone intercalations. It appears that slope gradients are more critical than other parameters such as aspect and drainage. The susceptibility assessment was based on a summation of assigned susceptibility scores (points) for each 30×30 m

Characterization of Landslide Deformations in Three Gorges Area Using Multiple InSAR Data Stacks
In the areas with steep topography and vulnerable geological condition, landslide deformation monitoring is an important task for risk assessment and management. Differential Synthetic-Aperture Radar interferometry (D-InSAR) and Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PS-InSAR) are two advanced SAR Interferometry techniques for detection, analysis and monitoring of slow moving landslides. The tech...
متن کاملUsing advanced InSAR time series techniques to monitor landslide movements in Badong of the Three Gorges region, China
The Three Gorges occupy 193 km of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River between Fengjie in Chongqing and Yichang in Hubei Province, China. Due to steep valley-side slopes and long-term river incision, landslides are a major hazard in the Three Gorges region. In this study, we employ the SBAS InSAR technique to process Envisat SAR images collected between 2003 and 2010. Our time series results...

In recent years, satellite synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) has been adopted as a spaceborne geodetic tool to successfully measure surface deformation of a few well-known landslides in the Three Gorges area. In consideration of the fact that most events of slope failure happened at places other than those famous landslides since the reservoir impoundment in 2003, focusing on a li...

To monitor and detect the events of landslide, rock-fall along the banks of the Yangtze River in the Three Gorges area, the differential INSAR technique with corner reflectors (CR-Based INSAR) might be more effective than the conventional geological, and discrete GPS measurement techniques, conventional D-INSAR, as well as nature persistent scatterers method. Unfortunately, in most places of th...

Landslide mapping (LM) has recently become an important research topic in remote sensing and geohazards. The area near the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) along the Yangtze River in China is one of the most landslide-prone regions in the world, and the area has suffered widespread and significant landslide events in recent years. In our study, an object-oriented landslide mapping (OOLM) framework ...
