Rockfall Impacts on Mobility (RIM) Database

This database is a compilation of information from rockfall databases and supplemented with additional media information into a single database focused on Rockfall Impacts to Mobility (RIM) in transportation. The parameters that are the primary focus of the RIM database include date, number of events, event volume, associated event closure time, and associated event cost. Information was culled from several existing databases focused on the Pacific Northwest, including the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) Unstable Slopes database, ODOT TripCheck mobility database, Alaska Department of Transportation (AKDOT) Geotechnical Asset Management (GAM) Rockslope Database, Alaska Department of Transportation (AKDOT) Geotechnical Asset Management (GAM) Event Tracker, Washington Department of Natural Resources (WADNR) Hazard Database, and the NASA landslide database. Collectively, these databases contain a variety of information based on a variety of sources. DOT databases tend to be from maintenance reports and/or field investigations from engineers, geologists and planners. The NASA database contains crowdsourced data from the public, and particularly from media reports on mass movements.
