| Summary: | This paper deals with the application of a factor-based approach, the Multi Criterial
Evaluation Approach, 1-D Slope stability model and the Analytical Hierarchy Process to
assess the spatial distribution of slope instability in the Shivkhola Watershed of Darjiling,
Himalaya. Remote Sensing and GIS tools have been incorporated to prepare the various
thematic maps processed in the present study and estimate the accuracy level of each
landslide susceptibility map. We utilized Erdas Imagine (9.0), Arc Map, PCI Geomatica and
MATLAB Software to fulfill the basic objectives. Results revealed that Analytical Hierarchy
Process and 1-D slope stability model are very much accepted approach in landslide
assessment and prediction.
