Centrus Landslides data is
based on the Landslide locations determined from published landslide maps and coordinates. In several
cases the points locate the nearest town or other geographic
feature. In all cases the locations should be considered approximate. Centrus Landslide data
shows point locations of costly individual landslide events in the
50 United States and Puerto Rico. Costly events are defined as those
where there was public or private property damage or loss of human life.
Landslides are defined in a broad manner, to include most types of gravitational
mass movement such as rock falls, debris flows, and the failure of engineered soil
materials. Landslide causes include earthquakes, reservoir draw-downs, and heavy precipitation. Centrus
Landslide data is for use with Centrus Spatial+
solutions.
