LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENT AROUND BABADAĞ (DENİZLİ) TOWN USING LOGISTIC REGRESSION METHOD
Abstract
In this study landslide susceptibility assessments were evaluated using logistic regression method around the Babadağ town extending to 1133 km2. Almost 300 slide type landslides corresponding 44km2 were identified in the area. Some of the residential areas, agricultural lands and lifeline systems has been severely damaged by landslides and more than five hundreds dwellings were evacuated in the region. Among the landslide conditioning factors; elevation, slope, plan and profile curvatures, proximity to faults and rivers and geological maps have been prepared in Geographical Information Systems environment with spatial resolution of 25 m The performance of the susceptibility map when compared to the landslide inventory revealed that high and very high susceptible zones correspond to 23 % of the study area including 72.13% of the recorded landslides.
