- Abstract:
-
DOGAMI performed a regional landslide hazard evaluation of the West Bull Mountain Planning Area (WBMPA).
Deliverables of this study include the following:
1. LIDAR-based landslide inventory map
2. GIS files
DOGAMI Special Paper 42, Protocol for Inventory Mapping of Landslide Deposits from Light Detection and Ranging (Lidar) Imagery (Burns and Madin, 2009) was used to create a landslide inventory of the southwest quarter of the Beaverton quadrangle. Ninety-eight landslide deposits were located. Forty-seven of these are within the WBMPA. Eighty-three of these were classified as shallow, nine as deep, and six as debris flow deposits. The average prefailure slope angle is 28 degrees. The average landslide area is roughly 20,000 square feet, which is approximately the size of a football field. The average depth of failure for the shallow-seated landslides is 8.5 feet, and the average depth of failure for the deep-seated landslides is 26 feet.
The landslide inventory map was developed with input from many sources, along with years of experience; however, several limitations underscore that these maps are designed for regional applications and should not be used as an alternative to site-specific studies in critical areas. These limitations are described in detail on the map plate and in Special Paper 42 (Burns and Madin, 2009).
This map is intended to provide users with basic information regarding landslides within the mapped area. The map contains useful information to guide site-specific investigations for future development, assist in regional planning and development, to mitigate existing landslides and slopes, and to prepare for emergency situations, such as storm events and earthquakes. While we reiterate that this database is not appropriate for site-specific evaluations, it is valuable for regional screening for landslides and the selection of appropriate areas on which to focus further site-specific studies. The database is particularly suitable for incorporation and consideration into regional GIS databases for a multitude of purposes. These include but are not limited to city and county hillside development ordinances, issuance of building permit conditions, public works planning and operations, and environmental and sustainability issues.
- Purpose:
-
This map is intended to provide users with basic information regarding landslides and the susceptibility to landslides within the mapped area. This map contains useful information to guide site-specific investigations for future development, assist in regional planning and development, to mitigate existing landslides and slopes, and to prepare for emergency situations, such as storm events and earthquakes. While we reiterate that this database is not appropriate for site-specific evaluations, it is valuable for regional screening for landslides and the selection of appropriate areas on which to focus further site-specific studies. The database is particularly suitable for incorporation and consideration into regional GIS databases for a multitude of purposes. These include but are not limited to city and county hillside development ordinances, issuance of building permit conditions, public works planning and operations, and environmental and sustainability issues.
