Landslide Susceptibility Map of the Republic of Srpska
Landslide Susceptibility Map of the Republic of Srpska is prepared using the expert AHP methodology and it shows a proposal of the terrain ranking in terms of spatial expectance of landslides in some areas. These maps are very suitable clear maps, comprehensible to experts from different fields, primarily spatial planning, urbanization etc. The preparation of this map, using the modern GIS tools, is a very useful way of prevention and the prerequisite for rational and meaningful struggle against landslides and their negative effects.
The Landslide susceptibility Map of the Republic of Srpska 1:300 000 has been prepared in accordance with the Long-term Program for the Development of Basic Geological Research of the Republic of Srpska. Establishing a GIS (Geographic Information System) database on landslide for the territory of Republika Srpska, a solid foundation has been created for developing a Landslide susceptibility map of the Republic of Srpska. This map represents a spatial probability map of landslide occurrences in a certain area. It's significant that this map is created according to the most contemporary scientific and technical achievements and practices in this field, utilizing modern GIS tools.
