Physical exposition to landslides triggered by earthquakes

This dataset includes an estimate of the annual physical exposition of landslide triggered by earthquakes. It depends on the combination of trigger and susceptibility defined by six parameters: slope factor, lithological (or geological) conditions, soil moisture condition, vegetation cover, precipitation and seismic conditions. A population grid for the year 2010, provided by LandScanTM Global Population Database (Oak Ridge, TN: Oak Ridge National Laboratory) has also been used. Unit is expected average annual population (2010 as the year of reference) exposed (inhabitants) . This product was designed by International Centre for Geohazards /NGI for the Global Assessment Report on Risk Reduction (GAR). It was modeled using global data.
