Comprehensive Areal Model of Earthquake Induced Landslides (CAMEL)
 Entry ID: USGS_CAMEL

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: This report describes the complete design of a comprehensive areal model of earthquake induced landslides (CAMEL). This report presents the design process, technical specification of CAMEL, and a guide to using the accompanying source code and template ESRI ArcGIS map document file for applying CAMEL. CAMEL is a regional-scale model of earthquake-induced landslide hazard developed using fuzzy logic systems. CAMEL currently estimates areal landslide concentration (number of landslides per square kilometer) of six aggregated types of earthquake-induced landslides – three types each for rock and soil.
