Semi-automatic and manual shallow landslide inventories of two extreme rainfall events.

This dataset contains the polygons of automatic ( PL) and manually (ML)  based shallow landslides related to two extreme rainfall events. In KML format, the dataset can be visualized on GIS software or  Google Earth.
With more details, it is possible to find:

AOI_2016: The study area of the extreme rainfall of November 2016,  Tanerello and Arroscia Valleys NW Italy.
The  2016_PL:  The inventory of potential shallow landslides semi-automatically  mapped on the base of Sentinel-2 images  related to extreme rainfall events that hit NW Italy in November 2016
The  2016_ML:  The inventory of shallow landslides manually mapped on high-resolution images of Google Earth, related to extreme rainfall events that hit NW Italy in November 2016
AOI_2019_large: The study area of the extreme rainfall of October 2019  NW Italy.
AOI_2019: The testing area of the extreme rainfall of October 2019, Gavi Area NW Italy.
The  2019_PL_all: The inventory of potential shallow landslides semi-automatically  mapped on the base of Sentinel-2 images  related to extreme rainfall events that hit NW Italy in October 2019 (whole Study area)
The  2019_PL:  The inventory of potential shallow landslides semi-automatically  mapped on the base of Sentinel-2 images  related to extreme rainfall events that hit NW Italy in October 2019 (Gavi test area)
The  2019_ML: The inventory of shallow landslides manually mapped on high-resolution images of Google Earth, related to extreme rainfall events that hit NW Italy in October 2019
GEE_Script: A list of codes used in Google Earth Engine to produce NDVI time series or averaged NDVI on some sample studied areas are reported in the attached PDF.  The code may be pasted and copied to the Google Earth Engine console.
