ABSTRACT

One of the basic activities in landslide mitigation is to generate a landslide susceptibility map which is the main objective of this research. Using appropriate method becomes the key to determine the areas prone to landslide. There are three applied methods for assessing the landslide susceptibility in Wadas Lintang sub district such as bivariate statistical analysis, multivariate statistical analysis and combination between bivariate and pair wise comparison method. The result showed that there are 71 landslide sites which are categorized into two types of landslide; rotational slides and translational slides. From the rainfall analysis, temporal probability of landslides can be formulated as Y = 0.0334X – 4.0127, where x is daily rainfall. Based on laboratory investigation, the soil textures in research area were dominated with a high percentage of clay fractions. The investigation also showed that the soil of research area can be categorized as organic clay and very plastic silt which is harmful for sliding in rainy season. The simple formulas were used to extract magnitude of landslide which is ranging from 1.848 to 2.565. Building the susceptibility map for rotational slides and translational slides should be separated because of their different characteristics. The comparison between three methods for assessing landslide susceptibility proofs that multivariate statistical analysis gives the best estimation of the location of future rotational slides as well as translational slides. The susceptible areas to landslide are determined by a combination of several factors which depend on the landslide types. Rotational slides occur on steep slopes from 15 – 30%, in areas covered by shifting cultivation and shrubs and underlain by grained sandstone, breccia and andesite. Most landslides of translational slides occur on landuse types of settlement and paddy field and in geological unit such as breccia, basalt and andesite. Translational slides dominantly occurred in flat - gentle slope from 0 to 8%. Based on the best resulted susceptibility map, the high susceptible area of rotational slides comprise 36.50% of the whole research area in which Samogede, Ngalian, Trimulyo, Lancar and Gumelar become the most susceptible villages. The high susceptible area prone to translational slides was estimated equal to 14.35% of research area at which Kaligowong, Tirip, Sumber Rejo, Wadas Lintang, and Plunjaran appear to be the most susceptible villages. Key words: Landslide, susceptibility, statistical, bivariate, multivariate, pair-wise.

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Landslides are regarded as natural degradation processes as stated (Van Westen,1994a) produced by natural and human activities. Natural factors such as high rainfall, earthquake, and volcanic eruption can trigger landslide occurrences. This condition becomes worse when human activity also contributes to landslide occurrences. Landslides are among of the major hazardous events in Indonesia. It caused a large number of casualties and damages. Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana Indonesia / National Bereau of Disaster Management in Indonesia (BNPB) (2008) revealed the data of disaster occurrences in 2008 as presented in Table 1:

Although most parts of Indonesia have more experience related to landslides, the preparedness and mitigation activities are not running well in many regions. The lack of required data, and hazard experts, limited budget and the lack of awareness of local government are some of the reasons why the mitigation and preparedness activities are far from adequate. In other hand, those activities are absolutely needed to reduce the effect of hazard.

One of the activities in landslide mitigation is to generate landslide susceptibility maps. Landslide susceptibility can be defined as the relative degree of instability of the terrain. This map presents the probability of future landslide occurrences. It can be made by correlating the environmental factors, which influence the landslide occurrences with past distribution of slope failures (Brabb,1984). To build a landslide susceptibility map we should consider the published methods or we can modify these to get a better-expected result. In spite of that, the chosen mapping method depends on data availability, financial budget and time for observation, while detailed level of required data counts on working scale and the proposed application of the mapping result (Soeters and Van Westen,1996).

In Indonesia, many local institutions tried to apply the known landslide susceptibility assessment methods in their regions. Most of them only implemented the heuristic method to the area prone to landslide and the problem of this method is in the subjectivity of defining parameters, the weighted and scoring values. These given values were based on either individual opinion or taken values from another location. For example, Wuryanta et al (2004) developed the landslide susceptibility map in Kulon Progo, Kebumen and Purworejo. They used the weighted value based on their opinions and they did not use the landslide inventory map to build a landslide susceptibility map. Therefore the resulted landslide susceptibility maps have many weaknesses and uncertainties. To assess the landslide susceptibility, the statistical analysis requires a landslide occurrence map that will be combined with environmental factors and the assumption that landslides will occur under the similar condition of each factor like the occurrences in the past. (Van Westen et al.,2005). In this approach landslide analysis requires a large number of input variables which several of them need a high cost and time consuming to collect (Van Westen,1994). The combination and comparison between statistical and heuristic method will become the major discussion in this research. The author chooses Wadas Lintang District where located in the southern part of Wonosobo Regency as the study area. This location was selected because a number of landslide occurrences are highly recorded. As a part of landslide mitigation activities, building the landslide susceptibility map is an important thing to generate the spatial planning for this district.

1.2 Problem Statement The intensive human activities in utilizing land are responsible for reducing the qualities of environmental condition. The decreasing becomes the causal factor for triggering several hazard events, such as landslides. Landslide mitigation processes are absolutely needed for hilly and mountainous area. Wonosobo is one of the landslide susceptible areas in the Central Java Province where landslide occurrences almost occur during the rainy season. Unfortunately the availability of landslide susceptibility map just is in Provincial level with scale 1 : 250.000 just showing the mass movement activities and not presenting the hazard zonation. This map was published by Bakosurtanal (2005). The latest landslide susceptibility map is shown in the Figure 1.

The local authorities need a more detailed landslide susceptibility map to support the better environmental management and for reducing the victims and damages caused by future landslide occurrences. Actually there are some data related to landslides in Wonosobo Regency during 2000 – 2008 in tabular format. However the lack of detailed spatial data of landslide occurrences and its distribution is still a main problem. Next, we need the landslide susceptibility map yet in the more detailed scale than the provincial one.

The other problem is how to improve susceptibility assessment method related to landslides. This improvement is expected to solve the problem related to the weakness of both methods; heuristic and statistical method. Using multivariate statistical analysis (MSA) completely depends on the accuracy of data. MSA may get the result objectively, but expert’s knowledge is entirely needed in the estimation of future landslides. In the end of this research, the author will compare the combined method with statistical methods. This research is hoped not only to produce a map, but also to contribute the suitable approaches to landslide susceptibility mapping.

Anyway, limiting the landslide causal factors may overcome as a question to be answered in this research. This can be solved by field observation which aims to identify the physical characteristics of landslide causal factor.

1.3 Objectives

1.5 Recent studies Magliulo et al (2008) built the landslide susceptibility map by using bivariate statistical method in southern Italy. They extracted the landslide susceptibility map by applying both information value and landslide detachment zone. Then the results had been compared with geomorphological field survey. The authors used orto-photo to recognize landslide sites as the based to generate landslide inventory map. As the preparatory factors, they choose lithology, landuse, slope gradient and aspect. The final result showed that both methods had good coherence with geomorphological map.

Firdaini (2008) generated landslide hazard assessment to define and evaluate land capability in Purworejo regency. She used some factors to build landslide hazard map such as slope, geology, soil, and landuse. The score values for each class parameter were given by her opinion based on the rank of them. The rank was arranged based on general pattern of landslide prone area in Indonesia. All factors were assumed in the same weight. Three classes of susceptibility were given by using equal interval method. Landslide inventory map was used to determine landuse priority and not used for verifying the landslide hazard map. The susceptibility method can be included as heuristic approach

Marhaento’s research (2006) tried to generate landslide hazard map by using heuristic and bivariate statistical analysis. Loano sub district in Purworejo Regency was chosen as the study area. Heuristic method was used to determine the landslide preparatory factors such as slope gradient, soil type, soil depth, land-use, lithology and distance to road. He extracted the landslide sites by using multi temporal ASTER images. The accuracy test chosen was success rate.

Wuryanta et al (2004) had done the research about landslide identification and solving activities in Kulon Progo, Purworejo and Kebumen regencies in Indonesia. Some factors were used to generate the susceptibility map such as landform, slope, geology, soil and landuse. The weight values were given based on their opinion. The final weight values were extracted by adding all weight values of each factor. The susceptibility classes were divided with equal interval method where maximum values minus minimum value divided with number of classes. They also identified the landslide by using Landsat 7 ETM which has 30 m spatial resolution, but the results were not used for verification. The identification of landslide site was used to combine with susceptibility map for producing the final susceptibility map. The susceptibility method is so subjective and can be included as heuristic approach.

Castellanos and van Westen’s research (2003) in Cuba gave details how to construct the landslide hazard map by means of developed heuristic method. They developed analytical hierarchy process, a part of the decision support system, as the heuristic model. Pair-wise and ranking methods were chosen to extract the weighting value. The causative factors chosen were topographic, geological, hydrological, geomorphology and tectonic factors. They gave the initial weights for each class parameters and the parameter levels based on both their analysis of three existing landslide area and their knowledge. The procedure to build the hazard map can be described as selecting the

parameters, designing the hierarchical tree, assigning the weighting value, and generating the final map. Compared with those researches, this study is significantly different. Two different maps of landslide susceptibility had been generated based on the types of landslides. The different can also be seen in the improved method which author used combination between pair-wise comparison - analytical hierarchy process (included as heuristic method) and bivariate statistical analysis. The BSA was only applied to extract the initial weighting value for each class parameter. Pair-wise comparison method was used to give the weighting value of parameter and then combining with the level of initial value of each class parameter to produce the final weighting value for each class parameter. Pair-wise comparison method which based on analytical hierarchy process was applied by means of Spatial Multi Criteria Evaluation (SMCE). In this research, the method for assessing susceptibility is not only using the improved method, but also bivariate statistical analysis and logistic regression (multivariate statistical analysis). The results of the three methods had been compared and the best results are used as final landslide susceptibility maps. Another difference is in testing the accuracy of landslide susceptibility map. The author selected prediction rate method where there were two scenarios of landslide inventory map; for generating and for verifying landslide susceptibility map.

CHAPTER 2. LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1. Types of Landslides

United States Geological Survey defined landslide as a type of mass movement caused either by natural occurrence or human activity or combination of both. Based on the velocity of the movement, landslides can be classified into several types such as fall, flow and slide (Abbot,2004)as described in table 2-1, later Soetoers and van Westen gave new types; topple and spread.

2.1.1. Falls

These types occur in very steep slope when elevated masses are separated along joints, bedding or the weaknesses. The detached masses go downward by falling, bounding and rolling which can be seen in figure 2-1

Figure 2-1. Fall Type

2.1.2. Flows

Flows are the type of mass movement with a fluid motion. The speeds of the movements vary from slow to rapid. The ranges of material are differently gradated from massive boulders to sand, clay, snow and ice. The differences between slide and flow are based on the water contents and slip surface. Falls are strongly influenced by gravity, mechanical weathering, and the presence of interstitial water. There are several sub types of flows such as earth-flow, mudflow, debris-flow, and debris avalanche. The illustration of flows is presented in figure 2-2

Figure 2-2. Flow type

2.1.3. Slides

Slides can be defined as movements of masses on failure surfaces or on the zone of shear strain. Typically of failure surface are either 1) curved in concave upward sense (rotational slides) and 2) nearly planar (translational slides).

• Rotational slides These slides occur along a curved surface. In the crown parts, the displaced masses moves downward vertically and the top surface of displaced masses angles back toward on the scarp. Movement is more or less rotational on axis parallel to the slope (Cruden and Varnes,1996). To identify the centre of rotation, we can determine by piercing a cross section with the point of compass and then swinging the compass in an arc to draw the failure surface (Abbot,2004). This slides is illustrated in Figure 2-3a

• Translational slides Translational slides are types of slides where the sliding can extend downward and outward along a broadly planar surface, and slide out over the original surface (Cruden and Varnes,1996) as depicted in Figure 2-3b. This type typically takes place along structural features, such as a bedding plane or the interface between resistant bedrock and weaker overlying material. (Abbot,2004) They are found globally in all types of environments and conditions. Translational slides generally fail along geologic discontinuities such as faults, joints, bedding surfaces, or the contact between rock and soil. These slides typically reflect a weak layer or existing structural discontinuity (Cruden and Varnes,1996). If the overlying material moves as a single, little-deformed mass, it is called a block slide.

Figure 2-3. a) Rotational slide, b) Translational Slide

2.1.4. Topples

Toppling is privileged by the presence of a steeply inclined join set with the strike aligned by more or less parallel to the slope face which can be seen in Figure 2.4. Topples are similar to falls except that the initial movement involves a forward rotation of the mass.

Figure 2-4.Topples type

2.1.5. Spread

The distinctive type of landslide is a spread. This type generally takes places on very gentle slopes or flat terrain. The upper layer is broken and moves outward on the underlying layer. Figure 2-5 shows the illustration of this type. The surface’s boundaries of mass movement can be difficult and diffuse to recognize (Soeters and Van Westen,1996). The failure is usually triggered by ground motion, such as that experienced during an earthquake, but can also be artificially induced.

Figure 2-5.Spread type

2.2. Landslide’s influencing factors

There are many factors that should be considered to analyze landslide hazard (Varnes,1984). Soeters & Westen (1996) divided those factors into 5 groups of factors as described follow - Geomorphology factors such as data of terrain unit, geomorphological sub unit,

types of landslide. - Topography factors such as data of digital terrain model, slope direction and length,

concavities - Engineering geology factors such as data of lithology, material sequences, structure

of geology, and seismic acceleration. - Landuse factors such as data of infrastructure (recent and older) and landuse map

(recent and older) - Hydrology factors such as data of drainage, catchments area, rainfall, temperature,

evaporation and water table map.

As mentioned by Soeters & Westen (1996), it may not be necessary to include all parameters; because it depends which ones are relevant for the study area. It also provides to conduct landslide susceptibility assessment by using few parameters.

Cruden and Varnes (1996) separated landslide causal factors into two group; preparatory and triggering factors. They also classified the causal factors of landslide including preparatory and triggering factors into geological, morphological, physical and human induced causes as given in the table 2-2.

2.2.1. Landslide triggering factors

Triggering factors are the events that change the condition of slope from generally stable to actively unstable state. The movement is initiated by triggering factors, such as earthquake, volcano eruption and relatively high rainfall. Rainfall is the most significant and common triggering factor for causing landslide occurrences in Indonesia. Generally, the infiltration process of rainfall influences the results in changing soil suction, positive pore pressure, ground water table, as well as increasing the weight of soil unit, diminishing shear strength of rock and soil (Huang and Lin, 2002)

2.2.2. Landslide preparatory factors

It is different with preparatory factors which cause the changes from susceptible slope to movement without initiating it. Preparatory factors have a tendency to place the slope in generally stable state such as slope gradient, landuse, drainage pattern, lithology, geological structure, etc . The relationship between landslide occurrences and landslide preparatory factors in the research area will describe as below.

2.2.2.1.Slope Gradient

The slope gradient is the most important factor to build landslide susceptibility mapping. This factor is generated from Digital Elevation Model. Based on USDA, the classes of slope gradient are extracted in percentage classified into 7 classes; 0 – 3, 3 – 8, 8 – 15, 15 – 30, 30 – 45, 45 – 65, and higher than 65%. Gentle slopes are predicted to give the low value for shallow landslide based on commonly lower shear stresses

Page 21: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

10

correlated with low gradient. At slope from 10 to 45 %, landslides may have high probability. The remained slope angle more than 45% will give a low probability relatively because the existing of resistant lithologic units. The assumption that these units are not covered by weathered units which are susceptible for land-sliding.

2.2.2.2.Landuse Landuse is one of the key factors responsible for the occurrence of landslides. The comparison between aerial photo 1994 and SPOT Imagery 2006 shows the drastically changes of forest area. Many forest areas were converted into agricultural areas and it was followed with increasing the number of landslide occurrences. Theoretically, barren land and shifting cultivation are more prone to landslides than other landuses. It could be happened because there is no deep root which can hold the soil. Contrarily, forest areas tend to decrease the landslide occurrences due to the natural anchorage provided by the tree roots. Landuse data is extracted from SPOT satellite imagery taken in 2006. The interpretation is done visually and then supported by supervised classification. Validating and verifying are done by checking most of research area. The classes of landuse are based on the landuse classification published by Mallingreu,J.P (1977) who researched about landuse in Indonesia, and the classes are categorized into reservoir / water body, settlement, forest, mixed garden, paddy field, shifting cultivation, filed crop, barren land, and shrub.

2.2.2.3.Lithology Lithology data was extracted from geological map. This data had been prepared for common geological functions without take into account the special needs of the susceptibility evaluation procedure. So, the geological units were regrouped based on lithological attributes rather than their stratigraphic content and age (Suzen and Doyuran,2004). Lithology is one of the main factors influencing the type and the intensity of the morphodynamic processes, including landsides. Thus, many researchers involved lithology as a factor for susceptibility mapping (e.g. Dai et al. (2001);; van Westen et al.(2003); Ayalew and Yamagishi (2005); Ayenew and Barbieri (2005); Ermini et al. (2005). Based on geological map scale 1 : 100.000 published by Geological Research and Development Centre of Indonesia, various rock formations in the study area have been grouped into seven classes to prepare the lithology data layer. The five classes correspond to (a) Schits and Phyllite, (b) Penosogan Formation, (c) Halang Formation Breccia, (d) Waturanda Formation (e) Tuff Member Waturanda Formation, (f) Totogan Formation, (g) Peniron formation. For area utilized for reservoir was defined as water body. The description of contents per each formation is discussed in chapter of research area.

2.2.2.4.Geological structure Saha et al, (2005) used the geological structure as a landslide causal factor. It means that landslide occurrences rise with proximity to geological structures. In this term, the lineament was presented as geological structure. The distance to lineament map signifies the presence of joint-fracture affecting the shear strength (Suzen and Doyuran,2004). The distance to lineament was worked in meter scale, and it tends to evaluate the local situation.

Structurally, the research area is relatively complex. Based on visual interpretation from SPOT imagery taken in 2006 and geological map, we can identify that there is a major fault that pass through the area, named Kalibawang Fault. In addition to fault,

Page 22: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

11

there are several lineaments in this area. Field observation shows that some of the lineaments are taken place on the cuesta area. Euclidean distance processing, one of the distance function, has been done to determine a buffer zone to signify the influenced area on the landslide occurrences.

2.2.2.5.Distance to road Beside the natural environment, human induced factor may raise the probability of landslide occurrences. Cutting the toe of steep slope and filling along the road are the common human activities on the hilly areas which increase the susceptible area to landslide. It is convinced when the author found that many landslide sites are near by cutting road area. The road network map was taken from topographic map scale 1 : 25.000. The best way to contain the effect of road factor in landslide study is by making a buffer on the upslope part.

2.2.2.6.Distance to river In order to evaluate the influence of drainage pattern on landslide occurrence, a spatial analysis is performed. Many landslide sites took place near by the river, especially river with steep cliff. Water flow scraps the edges of river causing the broken of upper part. The areas near by the river are more susceptible for sliding. It is supported by Suzen and Doyuran’s statement that corrected distance to river network is a sign of the possibility of river bank erosion in toe part of landslide. The river network map was taken from topographic map scale 1 : 25.000. Similar with the process in the geological structure and distance to road, the map of river distance was identified by buffering the river network. This is measured to be a reason of the terrain modification caused by undercutting of the slopes in the research area.

2.3. Soil Properties Soil properties in term of geotechnical engineering support to influence landslide occurrences. It could be happened when the soil moisture content exceeds the liquid limit in the field. This event generates the dangerous and prospectively devastating results as a soil become visible to be stable and then when distressed can unexpectedly break away (Handy and Spangler,2007). The soil loses its shear strength and become changed into a quick churning, and flow which cross anything in its path. Similar with that statement, Denisov in Handy and Spangler, (2007) declared that if the exceeding of saturated soil moisture content pass over the liquid limit, the soil become harmful to collapse and density under its own weight (if it ever becomes saturated). Increase in soil moisture content decreases soil strength by diminishing capillary cohesion. Liquid and plastic limits are significantly controlled by the clay content and clay mineralogy. Lambe and Whitman (1951) gave the description that the liquid limit is the water content where the soil has smaller shear strength. It gets to flow closely to a path of standard width when vibrated in a specific manner. The plastic limit is the water content where the soil starts to crumble and the soil can be rolled into thread of specified size. Based on theirs definition, the equation of plasticity index is formulated below:

PI = LL – PL Where PI = Plasticity Index . LL = Liquid Limit PL = Plastic Limit

2.4. Remote Sensing and GIS in mapping Landslide Inventory. Many researches evaluate the characteristics of landslides on the basis of geomorphological analysis fulfilled through aerial photograph interpretation and field observation (Carrara et al, 2003). Recently, some improvements have been developed for recognizing the landslide occurrences. For instant ; combination between satellite imagery and digital elevation model can be used to detect landslide sites (Barlow et al.,2006). Usually, landslide occurs in mountainous areas where are less accessible. Instead of doing the direct mapping, using the remote sensing method will be more reliable. By visual recognition from remote sensing data using visual aspects such size, contrast, and morphological expression, the identification of landslide occurrence can be conducted (Cassale et al.,1993). This process will show the scarp, disrupted vegetation cover and deviation in soil moisture related to past landslide occurrences (Marhaento,2006). The advantages of GIS technology such as geo-statistical analysis and database processing provide necessary tools for supporting landslide susceptibility map. The statistical method has been implemented by several researchers and it used to determine the relationship between slope failure and causal factor to generate landslide susceptibility map (Zhou et al.,2003).

2.5. Landslide Susceptibility The terminology used in this report concerning landslide hazards and associated concepts reflects the following definitions, based on Varnes (1984) as follow:

• Landslide susceptibility refers to the likelihood of a landslide occurring in an area due to local terrain conditions. Susceptibility does not consider the probability of occurrence, which depends also on the recurrence of triggering factors.

• Landslide hazard refers to the potential for occurrence of a damaging landslide within a given area. Landslide hazard includes spatial probability, size probability and temporal probability.

The landslide susceptibility assessment provides important information for conducting the landslide hazard assessment. Spiker and Gori (2000) stated that landslide inventory and landslide susceptibility maps are critically needed in landslide prone regions of the nation. Landslide susceptibility map proposes to determine the areas that would be affected by landslide in the future either by natural or human induced factors. These maps must be sufficiently detailed to support mitigation action at the local level. Generally, several methods pertaining to landslide susceptibility mapping can be divided into three methods: qualitative, semi quantitative and quantitative (Lee and Jones,2004). The qualitative method is a subject oriented method and well applied on the large areas and the quantitative method is object oriented method which looks for relationship between environmental factors and previous landslide occurrences. There are some approaches which can be classified into either qualitative or quantitative method. Some approaches from those methods have been elaborated by researchers, such as heuristic approach by Ruff and Czurda (2007), statistical approach by Carara et al (1991), deterministic by Soeters and Westen (1996) and probabilistic approach by Guzzeti et al (2005).

Page 24: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

13

2.5.1. Heuristic approach Heuristic approach is based on opinion of geomorphologic experts. Landslide inventory map is accompanied with environmental factors to be main input for determining landslide hazard zonation, and then the experts define the weighting value for each factor. Heuristic approach takes into account a hierarchical level and different method for determining weigh factors. Next, the hierarchical heuristic model becomes a part of decision support system (DSS) which aims for spatial decisions (Castellanos and Van Westen,2003). Generally, this approach can be divided into two analyses, direct mapping analysis and qualitative map combination. In the direct mapping analysis, the geomorphologist determine the susceptibility in the field directly which is based on individual experience. In the later analysis, the experts use their knowledge to determine the weighting value for each class parameter in each parameter. The main problem of this approach is in determining the exactly weighting value because this approach is mainly subject oriented method.

2.5.2. Statistical approach In term of landslide susceptibility assessment, the statistical approach has been expanded to produce higher degree of objectivity of landslide hazard assessment (Van Westen,1993). The key of this method is landslide inventory map when the past landslide occurrences are absolutely needed to forecast the future landslide’s areas. The combinations of causal factors are statistically determined, and based on similar existing condition, quantitative estimation of landslide occurrences are generated for currently free areas of landslide (Soeters and Van Westen,1996). There are two different analyses in the statistical approach; bivariate statistical analysis and multivariate statistical analysis. Both of these analyses will be deeply explain in chapter 3.

2.5.3. Physically-based modeling approach Landslide hazard assessment is determined by using slope stability model. In the contrary with other approaches, this approach quantitatively produces the stability index by calculating the safety factors. There are some weaknesses of this approach. The complicated calculation of safety factor, detailed required datasets, and the measurement of parameter’s spatial distribution relatively become the obstacles of this approach (Van Westen et al.,2005). Some experts gave some limitations for this approach. Van Westen (1993) stated that It can be implemented only at large scale and over small areas, because some input data such as ground water level, soil profile and geotechnical description are not sufficient in regional and medium scale. The resulted values of safety factors are only used to test different condition of slip surfaces and ground water depth, so they should not be used as absolute values. This approach is also acceptable only when geomorphologic and geological conditions over whole research area are moderately homogenous and the existing landslide types are simple. (Soeters and Van Westen,1996).

2.5.4. Probabilistic approach This approach is based on some following methods such as interpreting remote sensing data, field observation, interviews, and historical analysis of landslides in study area (Soeters and Van Westen,1996). Because the resulted spatial distribution of landslide occurrences presents the location of each type of landslides, it is considered as a straightforward form of landslide hazard zonation. The weakness of this approach is

Page 25: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

14

that the result doesn’t present estimation of temporal changes in landslide distribution. It causes landslides that occurred before image taken may be unpredictable. Therefore the generating of landslide activity map should be based on multi temporal interpretation of aerial photographs (Van Westen,1993). Even though this approach doesn’t explore the correlation between landslides and causal factors, it can be used to describe the density of landslide qualitatively.

2.6. Magnitude of landslides

In addition to the strength of mind of location and date of occurrences (Varnes,1984) landslide susceptibility assessment also involves the magnitude of potential phenomena (Guzzetti et al.,2005)

The landslide magnitude was mostly articulated in term of landslide area which is generally easy to be measured quantitatively. In a few cases, the magnitude of landslide was expressed in term of volume of soil displaced which is much more difficult to assess (Marques,2008). The volume of soil displaced was predicted by reflecting on the horizontal area lost.

Stark and Hovius (2001) stated that the reasonable proxy for estimating landslide magnitude is landslide sizes such volume and area which can be obtained from landslide observation. Recently, Malamud et al (2004) proposed a formula of landslide magnitude based on the total number of landslide events.

So, three parameters which purpose to estimating magnitude of landslide were used in this research. They are total effected area, number of occurrences, and volume of the landslide.

CHAPTER 3. METHODOLOGY

The main objective of this research is to produce landslide susceptibility maps by using the combination between bivariate statistical analysis and spatial multi criteria evaluation. The maps are expected to estimate the landslide occurrences in the future. The other objectives are to invent the distribution of landslide occurrences as a base to generate a landslide susceptibility map. At the end of this research, the author will validate the improved method by comparing the results with pure bivariate statistical analysis and multivariate statistical analysis and the best results become the selected susceptibility map of research area. The following part will briefly describe the used materials and equipment, and the methods chosen to solve the objectives.

The spatial data availability is the most important thing to make the environmental modeling in Geographic Information Science. It helps the decision maker to manage the implementation (Skidmore,2002). Not all data related to landslide parameters can be directly extracted. Some of them must be prepared as is shown in the table 3.1.

3.2. Data preparation All of the row data can’t be directly used to put into the processes, so it had been prepared firstly. In this sub section, the author explains the preparation processes. a. Aerial photos

Aerial photos were taken in TIFF or JPEG format, and to put these data to spatial format, geometric corrections were done. Geometric corrections are based on the Ground Control Points which exactly known in the field. The author did this process by using ARC GIS ver 9.3 and ARC View ver 3.3. After the process, the

result had been converted into ILWIS format, and then combining the image with DEM data by means of stereo pair process. The combination was shown as anaglyph map. The aim of this procedure is to analyze the landslide distribution and to generate landform map.

b. SPOT Imagery. Similar with the processes did in aerial photo, this image was corrected geometrically. To give a good visual appearance, the bands of this image were arranged. Based on that appearance, we identified the landslide sites and classified landuse in the research area. There was a research in Hongkong providing that SPOT imagery could be used to identify landslide sites. They applied automated change detection using SPOT multi-spectral satellite images with 20 m spatial resolution (Nichol and Wong,2005). Although there was only a SPOT image, recognizing landslides still could be implemented by followed extensive field check. Despite the visual interpretation, determining landuse had used supervised classification by taking some locations as sample plots of specific landuse. These sample plots were utilized as the bases for identifying all parts of research area. The basic concept of supervised classification is classifying by using same value of the pixels in the sample plot to these in the whole area.

c. Digital Elevation Model (DEM) In this research, DEM was used to build the slope gradient map. DEM was not directly obtained from existing map except SRTM data, so it should be generated from some raw data, for instant height point and contour data. In this case, the available data is a contour map taken from topographic map at scale 1: 25,000 with interval range 12.5 m. DEM is constructed by using Topo to Raster Process in the ARC GIS Ver 9.3, and then the slope gradient was generated in percent rise by using spatial analysis tool. The other purposes of generating DEM are to support the identification of landslide sites and to generate landform map. Extracting DEM can also be done by using other spatial software such as ILWIS, MapInfo, etc.

d. Road and river networks The maps of both river and road network were taken from topographic map with scale 1 : 25,000. The whole of research area was separated into some classes based on the distances between locations and river or road network. The distances can be classified into 6 classes; 0 – 20 m, 20 – 40 m, 40 – 60m, 60 – 80m, 80 – 100m and more than 100 m

e. Landform map. Some map sources (e.g. geological map) has a less detail scale. To make it same to the others, detailing processes had been done. Landform map could be used a basic to recognize more detail layer. This map was produced by identifying either anaglyph or stereo pair map.

3.3. Methods There are several methods to solve the objectives of this research which are described in the sub section below.

3.3.1. Landslide Inventory Landslide inventory map was built by using interpretation of both aerial photo (taken in 1993, 1994) and SPOT Imagery (taken in 2006) and verified by field works. Voskuil (2008) gave some indicators to recognize landslide both by RS Imagery and field check as follow:

• Semi-circular back scars and cracks. • Irregular/hummocky ground beneath the scars (local) • Irregular/hummocky slopes • Pounding of water in slides material, anomalies in drainage • Vegetation anomalies • Presence of man-made structures

Before field work had been done, the author built landslide inventory map by using remote sensing imageries (explained in data preparation section). The result had validated by field observation, where misinterpretations and inactive landslide sites were eliminated. To verify the realistic susceptibility maps, landslide occurrences from 2007 to 2009 were separated differently to test the landslide susceptibility map. The field work also proposed to add landslide sites which were not recognized in interpreting RS Imagery. Furthermore of these proposals, field observation was done to easily collect and recognize the types and dates of landslide occurrences. Interviewing the local communities was perceived helpfully, especially to identify the locations and boundaries of landslide sites. The other helpful material was the report of landslide occurrences from 2000 to 2009 presented by local government of Wonosobo Regency. This report showed the dates, villages and damages of landslide events. Figure 3-1 presented the procedure to generated landslide inventory map.

3.3.2. Rainfall Frequency Analysis This research took a center of attention on rainfall as the triggering factor of landslide occurrences. The reason is that rainfall generally causes of landslides in the subtropical and monsoonal climatic regions covered by hilly or mountainous topography. The author collected as much rainfall data in the study area. The aim of the rainfall frequency analysis is to estimate the temporal probability of landslide occurrences. By analyzing it, we can know the relationship between the temporal probability of occurrences and its return period. Gumbel Extreme Value Distribution was chosen as the method to analyze the rainfall data in the research area. The benefits of this method are that it can applied even with a small number of data sets and it can be used with extreme values (Parodi,2005). The rainfall data of research area was collected from surrounding rainfall station. The maximum value of monthly rainfall per year was extracted by summarizing the daily rainfall data. Then maximum annual rainfall values were sorted and ranked from the lowest to the highest. The lowest rank 1 was given to the lowest value of rainfall data and the highest rank N was allocated to the highest data value. The daily rainfall data before landslide event is also considered to be analyzed. It is computed over the return periods before the landslide initiated. After that process, the other step should be followed that described below. • The rainfall data per year was sorted by ascending and then we give the rank value

started from smallest to the biggest value. • The left sided probability for each observation was calculated by means of equation

below :

RPL

Where PL : left sided probability (probability that a certain rainfall amount is lower

than the one considered) R : is the rank of a given amount / value of rainfall N : number of observed years

• After all of left probability value is got, the return period (TR) was determined by using equation below.

3.3.3. Soil properties analysis Soil data should be included as a factor to build susceptibility map. The lack of the data and the time consuming to build semi-detail soil map became the reasons why it was not put into susceptibility map. The other approach is by knowing the tendency of soil in the landslide sites. In this research, the soil properties data that had been extracted is texture and plasticity index. The soil samples were collected from landslide sites by means of field observation and then brought to laboratory for the investigation.

3.3.4. Determining landslide influencing factors of research area In this research, the causal factors of landslides are determined by field observation, general literature inputs and data availability. Some factors had been chosen such as slope gradient, landuse, lithology, geological structure, distance to river, and distance to road. The reasons why chose them were explain in chapter 2. Exactly, soil properties data was needed to be put in the causal factor, but since there was no valid soil data, so the samples of soil in each landslide site were only taken to know the tendency of soil properties in the research area. To determine the landslide influencing factors, sensitivity analysis was done by eliminating each factor in generating susceptibility index. The factors which are not significant were removed in constructing the final susceptibility index map.

3.3.5. Landslide Density Landslide density can be defined as the area of landslide, divided by the total area. It can be implemented to calculate landslide density within the parameter class and landslide density within the entire area ( van Westen, 1993 and Yin and Yang, 1988). The formulas of landslide density are presented below ;

where, area is represented as a number of pixels, Densclas = the landslide density within the parameter class, Densmap = the landslide density within the entire map, Npix(Xi) = number of pixels, which contain landslides, in a certain parameter class, Npix(Ni) = total number of pixels in a certain parameter class

Some times landslide density is also presenting in point unit. It means that landslide density is measured by dividing the number of occurrences with the entire area. The unit is presented as occurrences per square kilometer.

3.3.6. Landslide susceptibility analysis There are three methods which were compared in generating landslide susceptibility maps; the improved method (combination of BSA and pair-wise), bivariate statistical analysis and multivariate statistical analyses. The description of these methods are described in the sub section below

3.3.6.1.Bivariate statistical analysis In this technique, the contribution of each parameter class of causal factors was assessed independently with landslide distribution. It proposed to determine the density of landslides in different parameter classes, relative to the landslide density over the entire research area. Using these density values derived from existing landslide distribution, the landslide susceptibility was predicted for absences landslide areas, by addition of the weights of individual parameter classes. Van Westen (1993) had proposed some procedures to perform the bivariate statistical analysis (BSA) for landslide hazard zonation studies. • Categorizing each parameter map into some relevant class parameters. • Overlaying and analyzing the combination of the parameter classes with landslide inventory. • Calculating the weight values for parameter classes based on cross tabulated data • Assignment of the weight values to the parameter classes and integration of the

parameter maps • In the end processes, the resulting value is classified a few hazard classes.

21

In BSA, author used Information Value Method (Yin and Yan,1988) to build landslide susceptibility map which uses the following formula as below :

Where Wi is the weight given to a certain parameter class i; DensClas is the density of the landslides in the class i; DensMap is the density of the landslides in the whole study area; NpixXi is the number of pixels falling within the polygons representing landslides occurring within the class i; NpixNi is the number of pixels within the class i; ΣNpixXi is the total number of pixels falling within the polygons representing landslides occurring in the whole study area; ΣNpixNi is the total number of pixels of the whole study area map. In addition to Information Value Method, there are some methods in term of BSA which developed by some researchers such as Landslide Susceptibility Analysis (Brabb,(1984); van Westen, (1993)), Weights of Evidence model (Lee and Choi,2004).

3.3.6.2.Multivariate statistical analysis In Multivariate statistical analysis (MSA), the combinations of all causal factors gave the weighting values which control the landslide occurrences. These values signify the contribution of each combination of causal factors to the degree of landslide susceptibility within defined land unit. Moreover, the relations among the causal factors are also met within the analyses. The general property of these analyses is their nature of being based on the presence or absence of landslide occurrences in the defined land units and there are two main approaches for multivariate statistical analysis (Van Westen,1993): • Statistical analysis of point data obtained from checklist of causal factors associated

with individual landslide occurrences. • Statistical analysis performed on terrain units covering the whole study area.

In comparison with bivariate statistical analysis, multivariate statistical analysis is rather time and budget consuming, in term of both collecting and processing data. We have to take samples for relevant factor either on unique condition area or terrain units and then determine either the presence or absence of the landslide occurrences. The resulted data will become the subjects in multivariate statistical procedure. The procedure to generated Multivariate Statistical Analysis can be described below : (Van Westen,1993): • Defining the landslide causal factors as the parameter maps and then overlaying all

of the parameter maps to produce the land unit map. From the later process, a large matrix is resulted.

• Crossing the land unit map with the landslide inventory map to extract the stable and unstable areas.

• The coefficients approximated by the multivariate analysis are used to calculate the landslide susceptibility of the entire study area.

• Slicing the landslide susceptibility values into a few susceptibility classes.

Application of multivariate statistical analysis in this research is as the comparing method with selected method. The method of Multivariate Statistical Analysis used in this study is Logistic Regression which doesn’t required normally distributed input variables. Logistic Regression Method is a mathematical modeling approach generating

22

to explain the relationship among several independent variables and dependent variable (Hosmer and Lemeshow,2000). The relationship above can be expressed as formula below:

Pr (event) = 1 / (1 + e –z) Where Pr (event) is the estimated probability of landslide occurrence which varies from 0 to 1 and Z is the linear combination:

Z = B0 + B1X1 + B2X2 ………+ BnXn

Where Bi (i=0, 1, 2 . . ., n) is the coefficient estimated from the sample data, n is the number of independent variables (i.e. landslide-related physical parameters), and Xi (i=1, 2,. . ., n) is the independent variable .

The other methods in Multivariate Statistical Analysis are Multiple regression and discriminant analysis which applied by some researchers recently (Ayalew and Yamagishi, (2005); Yesilnacar and Topal, 2005). Both of these methods required the normally distributed input variables (Suzen, 2003)

3.3.6.3.Spatial Multi Criteria Evaluation Spatial multi criteria evaluation (SMCE) is a model in ILWIS Software which is categorized as a heuristic method generated in more transparent way. Implementing SMCE helps users to apply multi criteria evaluation in analyzing spatially (ITC, 2001). The model is built by making criteria tree, where the causal parameter maps is grouped, standardized and weighted. The landslide causal parameters are weighted by means of direct, pair wise and rank ordering comparison and the output is a composite index map (Castellanos and Van Westen,2007). In this research, the weighting method used is pair-wise comparison method This method assumes that the users comparably evaluate the difference of magnitude among all unique pairs of factors qualitatively. Pair-wise comparison method was established by Saaty (1980) in the context of the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). In this process, the weights are defined by standardizing the eigenvector correlated with the highest eigenvalue of the ratio matrix. The AHP consists of three main steps ; 1)generating the pair wise comparison matrix, 2)computing the weights of the criterion, and 3) estimating the consistency ratio (Malczewski,1999). In the development comparison matrix the method employs an underlying scale with values from 0 to 1 to rate the relative preferences for two criteria which can be seen in the table 3-3 below :

Table 3-3. Scale for Pair wise Comparison Intensity Definition

Equal Importance Equal to moderate importance Moderate importance Moderate to strong importance Strong Importance Strong to very strong importance Very strong importance Very to extremely strong importance Extremely importance

3.3.6.4.Improved method

This research used the combination between bivariate statistical analysis and pair-wise comparison. Firstly, to know the scored value for each class parameter, the author calculated the density of landslides by using partly steps in the bivariate statistical analysis. The second process is grouping the causal factors into 4 general factors such as human induced, geological, hydrological and geomorphologic factors. Next, the levels of weight values were used to standardize input value by means of pair wise comparison resulting values from 0 to 1. After this process the steps in spatial multi-criteria evaluation were followed again by means of pair

Page 34: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

23

wise comparison method. The difference of this improved method was located on giving the weighting value of each parameter. The weighting value of this method was given by calculation process of analytical hierarchy process. The values were extracted based on the level of influences. Expert opinion which depends on observed physical characteristic of landslide sites determined the levels of the influencing factors. The levels of influence for each parameter can also be investigated from the weight values in BSA and the B value in MSA. The procedures to generate the landslide susceptibility maps are presented in the figure 3-2.

3.3.7. Verifying landslide susceptibility maps

Accuracy test is absolutely needed to verify the performance of susceptibility maps. prediction rate, the chosen method, was applied to know how well the model performs for future landslide occurrences. The distribution of multi temporal landslide event is definitely required in this method. We need at least two types of landslide inventory maps. The first one is to build landslide susceptibility map and the other ones are to test the accuracy of landslide susceptibility map. It is the difference with success rate method which only need a landslide inventory map. Success rate is made just for prove how good the estimation of model when it was built (Chang-Jo et al, 1995). In both prediction and success rate, the percentage of landslide occurrences was calculated. The calculated result was plotted in the graph where the percentage of the map in the X-axis and the percentage of the landslide occurrences in the Y-axis (Van Westen et al, 2009). The curve reveals the percentage of area of landslide occurrences which is estimated by percentage of predicted area. The better result is if the less percentage of map area can predict the higher percentage of landslide area.

3.3.8. Classifying the landslide susceptibility map

After deciding the best susceptibility index map, it is important to divide the map into a few susceptibility classes. There are four classification system to realize the necessity ; quantiles, natural breaks, equal interval and standard deviation (Ayalew and Yamagishi,2005). Ayalew and Yamagishi found some characteristics of those systems related to calculate the probability. Quantile system tends to place widely different value in the same class. For the data value with big fluctuation, the natural breaks give the better result; unfortunately this system is not suitable for the case which depicts the probability map. Next, Equal intervals, the common system in Indonesia, emphasizes one class relative to the others. It becomes unhelpful because it does not reflect the real susceptibility. The last method is by means of standard deviation. This system generates the class break supported by mean value which the number of classes are determined by the system. Finally, the standard deviation method was chosen as the classification method for landslide susceptibility maps. The mean value plus or minus a half of standard deviation will produce the first class boundary. The next boundary is generated by adding the standard deviation with the previous boundary.

3.3.9. Extracting Landslide Magnitude

Because of limited data availability, the calculation of landslide magnitude only used a few available data. Malamud et al (2004) proposed some equations to estimate the magnitude of landslide based on total area of landslides, number of events, and total volume of landslide. Malamud et al fit a three-parameter inverse-gamma distribution; p : (parameter primarily controlling power-law decay for medium and large values) which is equal to 1.40 , a : (parameter primarily controlling location of maximum probability) which is equal to 1.28x10-3km2, and s : (parameter primarily controlling exponential rollover for small values) which is equal to -1.32x10-4km2 The first magnitude equation is based on number of landslide associate with the event and the formula is

mL = log NLT (1)

Where mL is magnitude of landslide NLT is total number of landslides Magnitude of landslide also can be estimated by using area of landslide which is formulated below :

mL = log ALT + 2.51 (2) Where ALT is total area of landslides in km2 Equation 2 is extracted from combination between equation (1) and (3) below;

ALT = NLT ĀLT = = NLT x 3,07 x 10-3 (3)

Where ĀLT is average of total landslide area in km2 p is equal to 1.40

a is equal to 1.28x10-3km2, ѕ is equal to -1.32x10-4km2

Page 37: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

26

The other proposed equation to measure landslide magnitude is based on landslide volume. This formula requires the average volume of landslide. Although volume analysis is not done in this research, there is an assumption to estimate the average volume which is showed in equation below:

1222.161030.7 LTLTLLT NxNVV −== (4)

Where VLT is total volume of landslides in km3

V L is average volume of landslides in km3 By combining equation 1 and 4, landslide magnitude is obtained based on volume landslide which is used equation below :

mL = 0,89 log VLT + 4.58 (5) From those equations, the number of events becomes the key to generate magnitude of landslide. Using three-parameter inverse-gamma distribution, Malamud et al gave the estimation of area and volume of landslide in relation to number of events. The Malamud’s method becomes the main formula to extract magnitude of landslide in this research.

CHAPTER 5. LANDSLIDE CHARACTERISTICS

The contents of this chapter are the explanations about the activities taken to produce the landslide inventory map. The other activities that had been done were analyzing the rainfall as well as soil properties and landslide magnitude in the research area. One selected landslide sites was also used to depict the landslide profile and to estimate the volume of soil displaced and slope morphology analysis. All of data resulted by those activities were collected, verified and done by direct field observation.

5.1. Soil Properties Analysis

The researcher collected 60 soil samples taken from landslide sites. They were brought and investigated in laboratory of Agricultural Faculty of Gadjah Mada University. All of those can be used to extract the soil texture content, unfortunately just 58 samples could be investigated to produce liquid and plastic limit data. The results of soil content had been plotted to soil triangle by putting percentages of the sand and clay contents. It proposed to determine the texture classes. Figure 5-1 depicts the distribution of texture classes.

Figure 5-1 Soil texture distribution of landslide sites

By avoiding the homogeneity of research area, Figure 5-1 shows that landslide sites were dominated by clay texture. Almost of clay fraction percentage is more than 30%. Soils hold a large amount of clay fraction has fairly different physical characteristics from one made up mostly of sand or silt fraction. The higher the percentage of clay fraction, the lower the permeability and the higher the probability of sliding. Generally, clay minerals are quite resistant in dry conditions, but rapidly lose their strength in wet conditions. Extracted liquid and plastic limits were processed to produce the plasticity index which was formulated as liquid limit minus plastic limit. Next procedure is plotting Liquid Limit and Plasticity index into Casagrande Plasticity Chart as shown in figure 5-2.

Figure 5-2 Casagrande Plasticity Chart of soil samples Some general relationship between the limits and engineering properties (Lambe and Whitman,1951) is given in the table below:

Table 5-1 Relationship between the limits and engineering properties

Characteristic Comparing soils at equal Liquid limit with plasticity index increasing

Comparing soils at equal plasticity index with Liquid limit increasing

Permeability decrease increase Rate of volume change decrease - Shear Strength increase decrease Source : Lambe and Whitman, 1951 Figure 5-2 shows that many samples have value of liquid limit more than 50 and based on table 5-1, the higher liquid limit corresponds to lower shear strength. As we know that the soil with low shear strength have a high possibility to landslide. When high rainfall event occurs, the exceeding of saturated soil moisture content passes over the liquid limit, and it triggers the soil to become harmful for collapsing. 5.2. Generating the landslide inventory map Landslide inventory map is the most important thing that must be clearly done to generate landslide susceptibility map by means of statistical analysis. Several sources had been extracted to identify landslide sites by using aerial photo year 1993 scale 1 : 50.000, aerial photo year 1994 scale 1 : 20.000 as well as SPOT Image year 2006. Reported landslide was also used to look for the location of landslide occurrences. The final result was produced by combining those tentative results validated by means of field observation.

5.2.1 Recognizing landslides by using aerial photos Identifying landslides by using aerial photos was done by means of stereo-pair image as well as anaglyph map. Based on stereo-pair and anaglyph map, the sites of

landslides were visually identified. The significant indicators showing the occurrences were irregular slope and vegetation anomalies. It was too difficult to recognize landslide by using aerial photo year 1993 because of its small scale. Unfortunately the aerial photo year 1994 which had a higher scale just covered a middle part of research area and there only was found 3 sites of landslide which have relatively large sizes. It was difficult to decide that aerial photo’s interpretations were really landslide sites. There was no convincing evidence presenting the indication of landslide. Those areas were covered by pine forest and settlement and the interviewing with local inhabitants showed that they did not really sure about landslide occurrences in those sites. So, the researcher decided not to use the resulted interpretations to avoid the mistakes of landslide’s identification.

Figure 5-3 Temporal Landslide investigation 1(a) aerial photo 1994,(b) SPOT 2006, (c) Field Observation 2009

5.2.2 Recognizing landslides by using SPOT Imagery Beside aerial photo’s interpretation, identifications of landslide occurrences by means of GIS and Remote Sensing were also done by using satellite imagery. The available data of satellite imagery was only SPOT Image year 2006. Similar with the procedure in using aerial photos, the prepared process was building stereo pair map by combining SPOT image and digital elevation model. We recognized 14 landslides where were distributed at 10 villages. Vegetation anomalies were identified by considering the absolute contrast of tone and they were combined with the irregular slope. The lack of detail satellite image caused that only the large areas of landslide could be identified. Verification was done by field work, which showed that there were 12 actual landslides from 14 interpreted landslides. One of actual landslides is presented in Figure 5-4.

Figure 5-4 Temporal landslide investigation 2 (a) SPOT 2006, (b) Field Observation, 2009

One of the problems in landslide identification by using image interpretation in Indonesia is that many steep slopes have experienced to landslide at least once. To

determine the recent ones it must be verified by field investigations and interviewing with local communities. Field check convinced that there were 2 misinterpreted landslides. The first one happened in the pine forest area where there was slashing activity in the image’s date taken. The second one showed that it was a landuse conversion from pine forest into shifting cultivation in the steep slope area as depicted in Figure 5-5.

5.2.3 Field observation as a final mapping process

One of the functions of field observation is to verify and measure the landslide sites. The reported landslides were in tabular data and did not give the spatial distribution, so all of reported landslide must be directly verified and measured in the field. The polygon shapes of landslides had been presented in spatial data as required in generating landslide susceptibility map by means of statistical analysis. The field observation of the researcher is depicted in Figure 5-6. (a) (b) Figure 5-6 Field observation (a) direct measurement, (b) taking soil sample of landslide sites

Not only interpreted and reported landslides but also the unreported landslides were identified and measured (see Figure 5-7). The data of unreported landslide was investigated by interviewing with the local communities and the chiefs of sub villages who really know the location of landslides in their areas. It was proposed to collect landslide sites not just at the settlement areas and to identify the landslide sites as many as possible. The other benefit of interviewing activity is to easily recognize the dates and the boundaries of landslide occurrences. The boundaries became obscure when the fast plant growth covered the location and when the rebuilding activities hide the scarp of landslides.

Figure 5-7 Unreported landslides (a) in the mix garden (b) forest, (c) shifting cultivation area

From field work activities, it was known that there are 71 sites of landslides. They were differed into 51 rotational slides and 20 translational slides. The pictures of rotational slides had been given in previous figure and the pictures of translational slides seen in the figure below.

Based on the analysis of geomorphological condition, the distribution of landslide was presented in Figure 5-10. This figure shows that most of landslide occurrences were taken place in slope range 15 – 30%. It could be happened because this class (15-30%) dominates the research area which covers about 31.18% of total area. The areas with slope angle more than 30% just cover less than 10% of total area. The class 15-30% is steep enough for occurrences rotational slides. The extensive human activities

Figure 5-10 Geomorphological Distribution of Landslide in Wadas Lintang

The author also separated landslides based on the sources; they were separated into 38 reported landslides, 21 unreported landslides and 12 interpretation’s sites. Local authorities stated that there were 50 events of landslide in Wadas Lintang Sub Districts. After the field observation, not all of those could be classified as landslide, for instant; bridge collapse because of its scraped footprint, the fence failure because of its weak materials. The non landslides categorized were eliminated from the list of landslide occurrences. Finally, to construct and verify the susceptibility map, landslide inventory maps was separated based on types of landslides and periods of events.

The illustration of landslide distribution in Wadas Lintang Sub District was depicted in Figure 5-11 and the detail attribute data of landslide occurrences can be seen in appendix 1.

5.3. Landslide Profile Generating landslide profile had been done by detailed measuring and depicting at landslide site. The limited time became main problem to make landslide profile for each occurrence. The reactive landslide of Dadap Gede (a part of Wadas Lintang sub District) was chosen as an example of constructing landslide profile. This site was selected because of its fresh occurrence and clear performance. The size of this site is 0.577 ha which is covered by cassava and banana trees. The recent slope morphology of Dadap Gede’s site is ranging from 0 to more than 65%. By generating DEM, it was known that the slope morphology before sliding was dominated by class > 45%. Local inhabitants stated that the sliding happened after high rainfall occurrences in 2008. The spring which flows crossing the sites could be one of the causal factors. The water is coming from seepage in the upper area which is planted with paddy field.

The other processes are generating transect line, calculating the removal deposit and geomorphological analysis. The basic principle is by knowing the height of surface before and after the landslide events. It recognizes the area and volume of surface that had been change by removal or addition of surface material.

The condition after the events was directly measured by using geodetic instruments such compass, clinometers, and Laser Range Finder and the condition before the events was assumed similar with contour map extracted from topographic map. The software used was ArcGIS ver 9.3, 3Dimension and Cut/Fill Volumetric Analyses. Landslide profile of Dadap Gede was illustrated in Figure 5-12

5.4. Volumetric Analysis Next, estimating the removal soil was done by means of volumetric analysis. Two DEM data (before and after sliding) were combined to produce volume estimation map. The process to produce volumetric estimation map was shown in Figure 5-13.

Figure 5-13 Volumetric Analysis process

Supporting the volumetric estimation, some transect lines were built to show the surface conditions in Dadap Gede’s landslide as presented in Figure 5-14.

The Figure 5-14 shows that a middle part of area crossed by transects B had a loss of surface material more than 6 meter height. Transect B, C and D showed there was some surface material added to the south parts. The result of volumetric analysis stated that the material cut was estimated equal to 2,246.13 m3 located in 0.4824 ha and the material filled was predicted equal to 118.8 m3 located in 0.0946 Ha. It means that just a small amount of soil loss was moving to filled area. Most of soil loss disappeared because of human activities and erosion as depicted in figure 5-11.

The result of volumetric analysis was verified by the formula proposed by Simonett in Malamud et al, (2004). The formula is presented below:

Where VL is volume of landslide in km3

AL is area of landslide in km2

Calculation shows that

VL = 0.024 * 0.005771.368

= 0.0000020773 km3 = 2,077.3 m3

In this case, using volumetric analysis or landslide volume equation gives a relatively similar result, about 8 percent different (equal to 168.8 m3) 5.5. Slope morphology analysis Analysis of morphology also had been done to estimate the topographical changes at the landslide site. It could be done by generating slope maps which extracted from DEM data. The slope maps depicting the topographical condition before and after the sliding were presented in Figure 5-15.

Figure 5-15 Slope condition before and after sliding at Dadap Gede

Topographical condition of Dadap Gede was significantly changing after the landslide event. As presented in figure 5.11, the ground surface changes from relatively regular pattern onto irregular pattern. In the upper part, the slope class changed from 30 – 40% class into 4 different classes; 0 – 3%, 3 – 8%, 8- 15%, 15-30%, and 30-45%. The very steep area (>65%) in the middle part became less steep areas and the moderately sloping area (8-15%) in the lower part became moderately steep (30-45%) and steep (45-65%) areas. In short, the landslide events can change the topographical condition on the certain areas from steeper onto less steep.

5.6. Magnitude of landslides

Landslide magnitude of research area was extracted by means of area affected, number of events and volume of soil displaced. The used formulas were explained in chapter 3. The area affected and a number of events were obtained from landslide inventory map, and volume of soil displaced was estimated by using Malamud’s equation which predicts the volume by means of number of events. The research area is about 131 km2 where there are 71 landslide sites during 2000- 2009 with density 0.542 occurrence per square kilometer. Based on the area size, the landslide density of the research area is equal to 0.0086

4 mL = log ALT + 2.51 2.5649 ALT =1.13486 Landslide Inventory

Where mL is magnitude of landslide, NLT is total number of landslides, ALT is total area of landslides in km2, and VLT is total volume of landslides in km3

Based on Table 5-2, the magnitudes presented in equation 1,2, and 3 vary in the range mL = 1.848 – 1.8573. For these examples, using the total area affected, total number of events, and total volume soil displaced gives similar magnitudes, less than 0.01 different. When using landslide area based on inventory data (equation 4), the magnitude resulted is quite different with equation 1,2, and 3, less than 0.72 different. The dissimilar values were caused by the differences value between predicted landslide area and actual landslide area. The actual landslide area is significantly larger than predicted one. So far, we can estimate the magnitude of landslide in the range 1.8483 – 2.5649.

Actually, the magnitude of landslide based on its volume also can be generated if there is detail volume data for each site.

5.7. The probability of occurrence rainfall triggering l andslides

It is quite important to know the relationship between rainfall data and yearly landslide events. The first step was building the rainfall return periods. The Gumbel extreme value distribution method was used to extract the temporal probability shown the coherence between the rainfall probability occurrences and its return period. This method only considers the maximum value of daily rainfall in a year. The rainfall data used came from Wadas Lintang station primarily because this station was taken place in the centre of research area. The empty data of this station had been completed from surrounding stations. Calculating process which uses Gumbel equation produces the rainfall return period in the Table 5-3 below

Source: Rainfall data analysis

Described in the Table 5-3 above, the highest amount of daily rainfall per each year was 220 mm occurred in 1986 and the lowest ones were 85 mm occurred both in 2006 and in 2008. The maximum rainfall in the year 2007 was 105 mm, and it was assumed that the rainfall value induced landslides in year 2007. The return period of this rainfall was 1.25 years, and it means that in the next 1.25 year from year 2007 the same peak will happen and induce the landslide occurrences. Gumbel method also can be used to estimate the rainfall data in the future. From those we can build an estimating equation of rainfall data as painted in the Figure 5-16 below.

Figure 5-16 Relationship between Left Probability and amount of Rainfall

Related to landslide events, It can be assumed that rainfall in 2003 (210mm) triggered the largest area of landslides in 2003 (73.58 Ha). So, return period of rainfall can be used as the temporal probability of landslides.

CHAPTER 6. LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENT

The main goal of this research is to build landslide susceptibility map by means of statistical analysis and pair-wise comparison method. The first step that should be done was selecting the landslide influencing factors which were put in landslide susceptibility assessment. Based on field observation, there were two types of mass movement in research area, so the landslide susceptibility map was decided to separate, but the author also builds the susceptibility map by merging all of landslide types. Three analyses had been done to compare the final results which were described in this chapter.

6.1 Selecting the landslide influencing factors of research area

The estimating of influencing factors was also conducted by using sensitivity analysis. Each factor was eliminated in the calculating landslide susceptibility index and furthermore verification is done by means of success rate. The sensitivity analysis had been done for both rotational slides and translational slides. After the process, the result of sensitivity analysis for rotational slides is presented in Figure 6-1. Figure 6-1 Success rate of rotational susceptibility index based on sensitivity analysis

It is quite difficult to see the differences of the sensitivity analysis result. The solution of this problem is by calculating the area under the curve. The area under the curve which includes all factors is equal to 92.89%. By eliminating river, the area under the curve is 92.05%, followed by curve without road factor; 91.49%, without lineament 91.24%, without slope 90.89%, without lithology 90.59% and area of curve without landuse 80.06%. From those calculations, landuse factor becomes the most influence factor and the lowest one is distance to river. The influences of each factor also had been determined by assessing the range of weight value per each factor. Weight values were extracted by calculating the landslide densities of each class parameter and the range value is the summary of absolute minimum and maximum values of weight values. Table 6-1 illustrates the weight values of each class parameter for rotational slides.

Based on both Table 6-1 and Figure 6-1, the most influence factor is landuse, followed by lithology, slope, lineament and river. The road factor has the lowest value of significant factors. However since there were many researches which emphasized the influence of road network, the road distance is still used in building susceptibility map. Many landslide occurrence located near the road indicate the influence of this factor to landslide occurrences. Figure 6-2 shows the landslide occurred near to the road in research area.

The sensitivity analysis was also executed for translational slides, and the results were presented in table and Figure 6-3. Figure 6-3 Success rate of translational slides susceptibility index based on sensitivity analysis

Including all factors produces area under the curve which is equal to 97.07% of total area. The area under the curve by eliminating river is equal to 96.64%, followed by curve without lineament ; 96.47%, without road factor; 96.41%, without slope 95.89%, without lithology 94.44% and area of curve without landuse 93.85%. From those calculations, landuse factor becomes the most influence factor and the lowest one is distance to river. Similar with the process applied in rotational slides, the influences of each factor could be seen in weight value table. Table 6-2 presents the weight values of each class parameter for translational slides.

Based on Table 6-2 and Figure 6-2, the most influencing triggering factors of translational slides are landuse, litology and slope, followed by lineament, road and river. All of the factors show the significant influences causing landslides. Although river factor has the lowest influence, it was still kept as the parameter. Some evidences showing the landslide occurrences in the river bank are presented in Figure 6-4. Hence, causal factors elimination is not necessary in this case. Figure 6-4 Landslide occurrences triggered by river bank erosion in toe part

6.2 Bivariate statistical analysis.

Landslide Susceptibility index map was built by summarizing the weight values in the same land unit by using the formulation as follow: The Susceptibility Index = Total Weight Value of all factors used. The description for each type of landslide is presented in sub section below.

6.1.1 Bivariate statistical analysis for rotational slides

According to table 6.1, some analyses had been extracted. The results indicate some landuse types such as barren land, field crop, shifting cultivation and shrub have positive correlation with the rotational slide occurrences. Reservoir and river classes have the lowest weighting value, and it is acceptable because there was no landslide in that classes. In addition, the surrounding areas of settlement also have a positive relation. In distance to lineament parameter, we see that all of class parameters had a positive correlation with rotational landslides except 0 – 20 m and > 100 m classes. Theoretically, the nearer distance to lineament has the higher susceptibility of the area. The other parameter, lithology, indicates that only Halang Formation (Tmpb) and Waturanda Formation (Tmw) had a positive coherence with rotational slides. It means that the material deposits of both formation have induced landslide in the research area. Halang Formation consists of Brescia and Waturanda Formation consists of grained sandstone and brescia. From the distance to river parameter, only more than 100 m class has the positive correlation. Actually, in some cases, the cliff of river is susceptible for rotational slides. The acceptable result of distance to road parameter can be seen in table above, which all of class parameters have a positive correlation except > 100 m class. Based on slope gradient, rotational slide has a positive correlation with some classes; 15 – 30%, 30-45%, 45-65% and > 65%. Theoretically, the areas which has slope > 65% relatively resistance to slides. In this research the areas with > 65% slope were affected by surrounding slope class areas. Landslide Susceptibility index map is presented in Figure 6-5.

6.1.2 Bivariate statistical analysis for translational slides

Some analyses had been extracted according to the result shown in table 6.2. Based on landuse weight, only settlement areas had a positive correlation prone to translational slides. It happens because these mass movements were recognized in settlement areas according to local authority’s report. In distance to lineament factor, all of classes present the positive coherence with translational slides except class > 100 m. Based on litology parameter, the table shows that Penosogan (Tmp), Halang (Tmpb) and Totogan (Tompt) formation had a positive correlation with translational slides. From the distance to river weight, there are two classes with positive correlation; 40 – 60 m, and > 100 m classes. The acceptable result of distance to road parameter can be seen in table above, which all of class parameters have a positive correlation except > 100 m class. Translational slides occurred more dominant in the gentle slope, where classes 0 – 3 % and 8 – 15% become the most susceptible area. Furthermore, a landslide Susceptibility index map was generated as shown in figure 6-6.

Barren land, field crop, shifting cultivation and shrub had a significantly positive coherence with landslide. In distance to lineament parameter, all of classes present the positive coherence except 0 – 20 m and > 100 m classes. Based on lithology parameter, the table shows that only Halang (Tmpb) and Waturanda (Tmw) formations have correlation with landslide. From the distance to river parameter, all of the classes didn’t have significant influences for landslide except class > 100 m. It was contrary with road parameter where only class > 100 has a positive correlation with landslides. Based on Slope gradient, both types of landslide have a positive correlation with some classes; 15 - 30 %, 30 - 45%, and > 65%.

Further step on this part was generating landslide susceptibility index map shown in figure 6-7.

6.3 Multivariate statistical analysis by using logistic regression

In this method, susceptibility maps were also built for each type and for all types similar with the way of how landslide susceptibility map generated by using BSA. In this part, the approach used is statistical analysis of raster data obtained from checklist of causal factors associated with individual landslide occurrences. All of causal factors and landslide occurrences are crossed to produce the matrix of presence and absence landslide unit. Sample units were taken from this matrix. Several samples of presence landslides avoiding many unique condition areas with only a few pixels were taken into account as sample units. The number of presence landslide should be equal to the number of absence landslide. For the absence landslide unit were determined purposively, where the units tend to slide were omitted or reduce in number compared by the safe units prone to landslide. Logistic regression analysis was used to build landslide susceptibility index. As described in the formula (see chapter 3), the first step in this method is extracting intercept and B value of each class parameter. This step was processed separately from spatial software, and the mean of SPSS software was chosen. Next procedure is calculating linear combination (Z) by summarizing the intercept and B values (formula is presented in chapter 3). The last step is computing the probability value (Pr). Both Z and Pr value can be calculated in ILWIS software.

6.2.1 Multivariate statistical analysis for rotational slide Three data sets had been exploited to get the best data set. The overall statistics of those data sets were described in the table 6-4

The third dataset was chosen to run his model because it was the highest among the others. The key for standard analysis of the test is generally the chi-square value showing the significant test for logistic regression (Ayalew and Yamagishi, 2005). The chi-square value is fairly higher than that of the others and it can be concluded that the causal factors have a sufficient influence on the landslide occurrences. The higher R square signifies how the model fits the data. R square prior to 1 means that the model fit perfectly, whereas 0 indicates there is no relation with the data (Ayalew and Yamagishi, 2005). Based on table 6.4, the chosen data set has 0.530 for R square and 309.304 for Chi-square. It means that the selected data set have significant influence on the landslide occurrences and can fit the data. The extracted accuracy of the third dataset is presented in Table 6-5 below.

According to table 6-6, in Landuse classes, there is no big significant influence among all classes. While, mixed garden and shifting cultivation are the highest classes susceptible to landslide. This could happen because the distribution of sites spread evenly in many classes of landuse except forest and paddy field classes. It also was depicted in lineament classes, where just a little bit difference among all classes. The

big differences appear in litology classes, whereas Tmw formation shows its control for rotational slides. It could be compared with the lower value in Km, Tmwt, and Tompt formation. The relatively higher values for river class appear in location with distance 40 – 80m and for road class come into view in location with distance 20 – 80 m. Distance to lineament versus landslide distribution did not show any particular trend. The model indicated that landslide frequency increases gradually with an increase in slope angle until the range of 15 – 30% and then decreases beyond that range. By using logistic regression formula, the final probability values were extracted and then mapped in rotational susceptibility index which presented in figure 6-8

The third dataset was chosen to run this model because it was the highest among the others. As described on rotational part, the selected dataset for translational slides also has significant influence on the landslide occurrences where the R square equal to 0.733. The chi-square is also the highest one which equal to 216.344 and it means that

According to table 6.9, in Landuse classes, settlement area becomes the most significant values for landslide occurrences. It is related to landslide inventory map which was collected during field work. This type of landuse can be recognized clearly on settlement area indicated by properties damages. The signs of translational slides type can also be seen in paddy field area where terraces became collapse. Based on lineament factor, the location nearer to the lineament results the more susceptible areas. The similar condition also happened on the road factor. It is related to the occurrences in settlement area where the settlement areas are mainly situated near by the road. Similar condition also can be found in river distance, the assumption is that the nearer to stream, the more susceptible to the mass movement. The location took place in class 80-100 m is the highest susceptible area for translational slides among locations in other classes. Slope factor also shows the regular pattern where translational slides will be more susceptible in undulating (3-8%) area. Translational slides type occurs rarely in the location where setting from hilly to very steep slope. The B values had been continued to be processed by using probability formula, and then the final weight value for each pixel was depicted as translational slides susceptibility index which presented in figure 6-9

Table 6.12 shows that barren land is the most influence class of landuse which controlled the landslide occurrences. That class was followed by barren land, shifting cultivation and field crop classes. In lithology classes, Tmw and Tmp formation give the significant influence for landslides. Mixing both types of landslide makes all of classes in river and road distance become quite similar. However, selecting sample for absence landslide becomes difficult because presence landslides spread evenly in all classes. The root problem is the different characteristics of both types. Rotational slides commonly occur in relatively steep area (from 15 – 65%) whereas translational slides take place in flat and undulating area (0 – 8%). The other condition shows that rotational could be triggered by road expanses where the areas near to the road become more prone to slide. It is quite different with translational slides where the road distance has no significant influence for mass movements but influenced by lineament. Building susceptibility map was still done to know the effect of combining both types of landslides. Generating probability values was processed and the results were mapped into susceptibility index map which presented in figure 6-10

6.4 Improved Method (BSA and pair-wise)

This method was built based on analyzing the weight value in bivariate statistical analysis. The weight values in each parameter had been observed to decide the influence level of parameters (explained in previous chapter). The author just recognized the level of influences based on BSA’s weight value. All of comparisons are based on pair wise method published by Saaty, 1980 in term of Analytical Hierarchy Process. In this method, the all factors used were classified into a few groups. The first group consists of landuse and distance to road parameters, because both of these were induced by human activities. The second one includes lineament and lithology parameters which were extracted from geological map. The next group presenting the hydrological condition contains of distance to river parameter and the last group is geomorphology group which only consist of slope gradient parameter. The level of influence for groups and parameters were determined by the range of weighting value. The range value is the range between the minimum and maximum weight value. The range values were used under assumption that the higher the range values show the bigger differences of influence among the variables. The groups which have quite similar range value were categorized in the same level. The standardization of each class parameter is compared each other to determine the level of influence. Some classes with quite similar values in BSA were classified in the same level. Normalized priority value for each class parameter had been extracted by means of pair wise comparison method. This comparison method had also been done to define the initial weight value for each parameter in the same group as well as the initial value for each group. For example: • Barren land has weight equal to 2.80; shrub: 2.21; Forest: -4.06. Barren land and

shrub were categorized in the same class which more influence than forest. • Landuse parameter has range of weight which is equal to 11.70; road: 0.28. It

means landuse is more influence than road. • Human Induced group has range of weight equal to 12.10; Geology group : 11.80;

Geomorphology group : 4.2. The human induced and geology group were classified in the same level which more influence than geomorphology group.

Another disparity between BSA and improved method is on type of weight value. The values in BSA spread from minus into plus value based on the landslide density, whereas the weight value in improved method is probability value which spread from 0 to 1. The final weight values were automatically calculated by means of Spatial Multi Criteria Evaluation, a hierarchical model of ILWIS. The final weight value for each class parameter is produced by multiplying the group weight value, parameter weight value and normalized priority value of class parameter. For example: class parameter barren land, group value: 0.5, parameter value: 0.75 and class parameter value: 1.00 Final weight value of barren land = 0.5 * 0.75 * 1.00 = 0.375 The total probability value is the summarizing of all class parameters which took place in the same pixel. Detail manual calculation of weighting values by means of Pair – Wise Comparison Method (AHP) can be seen in appendix 14 and 15.

6.4.1 Improved Method for Rotational Slides

Based on weighting values in BSA, the levels of the influence of parameters were generated. The human induced, geological and geomorphological factors have a similar range of weighting value. Thus, those factors were classified in the same level. The hydrological factor which has the less influence was categorized in the lowest level. Pair wise comparison method had been done to extract the weight value presented in table 6-13:

Table 6-13. The weight value for each group and parameter for rotational slides by using pair wise comparison – SMCE

Num Groups and parameters The weight value Inconsistency Ratio

3 Hydrological Factor - River Distance

0,10 1.00

4 Geomorphology Factor - Slope Gradient

0,30 1.00

0.00000 a value above 0.1 is an indication for inconsistencies in pair wise comparison

Human and geological factor were classified in the same level, because of their similar range of weight value (human induced: 11.83 point >> landuse: 11.70 -- road: 0.13 and geological factor: 11.87 point >> litology 9.90 -- lineament 1.97, see Table 6-1).

Geomorphological factor was defined similar with the level of previous factors. Slope gradient is the key of the sliding types. Hydrological factor got the lowest level since the range of weight value is the smallest one (0.84 point).

Based on calculation results, the final weight values for all class parameters are presented in table 6-14. Based on table 6-14, barren land and shrub become the susceptible areas for landslide for landuse parameter. Tmw formation is the highest susceptible area among litology classes, and all classes of road distance turn into susceptible area except class >100 m. In lineament parameter, classes 60-100m also take into account as susceptible areas and for slope parameter, the classes more than 30% are the prone area to rotational slides.

The levels of weight values are quite similar with it in BSA. The differences appear when some quite different values in BSA were categorized in the same value because of their small dissimilarities.

Combination of all described classes above will produce the most susceptibility area for rotational slides.

6.4.2 Improved Method for Translational slides

Human induced and geological factor have the biggest contribution causing mass movement. It signifies by means of their range of weighting value which just shows a little different. Geomorphological factor took place in the lower level followed by hydrological factor. Pair wise comparison method had been done to extract the weight value presented in Table 6-15.

According to Table 6-2, human induced and geological factor were classified in the same level, because of their similar range of weight value (human induced: 10.07 point >> landuse: 7.51 -- road: 2.56 and geological factor: 9.93 point >> litology 7.62 -- lineament 2.31.). Geomorphological factor was defined as the second most important factor which has 6.29 point. Hydrological factor got the lowest level since the range of weight value is the smallest one (1.49 point).

Based on Table 6-16, settlement becomes the most susceptible areas for translational slides in landuse parameter. Tmpb formation is the highest susceptible area among litology classes, and all classes of road distance turn into susceptible area except class >100 m. In lineament parameter, classes 20-60m also takes into account as susceptible areas and for slope parameter, the classes from 0 to 15 % are the prone area to translational slides. Combination of all described classes above will produce the most susceptibility area for translational slides.

The levels of translational slide’s weight values in improved method are quite similar with it in Bivariate Statistical Analysis. The differences appear when some quite different values in BSA were categorized in the same value.

Based on calculation results, the final weight values for all class parameters are presented in table 6-16.

Human induced and geological factor have the biggest contribution causing mass movement. It signifies by means of their range of weighting value which just shows a little different. Geomorphological factor took place in the lower level followed by hydrological factor. Pair wise comparison method had been done to extract the weight value presented in table 6-17.

Based on table 6-18, barren land and shrub become the most susceptible areas for translational slides in landuse parameter. Tmpb and Tmw formations are the highest susceptible area among litology classes. For road distance parameter, the classes from 0 to 60 m turn into susceptible areas. In lineament parameter, classes 60-100m also take into account as susceptible areas and for slope parameter, three classes such as 30-45%, 45-65% and >65% are the prone area to translational slides. Combination of all

described classes above will produce the most susceptibility area for translational slides.

The levels of weight values in improved method are quite similar with it in Bivariate Statistical Analysis. The differences appear when some quite different values in BSA were categorized in the same value because of their small dissimilarities. Based on final weight values, the susceptibility map for rotational slides had been made. The susceptibility index map of mixed types is depicted in figure 6-13.

Figure 6-13 Susceptibility index map of mixed types by using Improved Method

6.5 Verifying landslide susceptibility index map

Verifying and validating all landslide susceptibility maps is absolutely needed to decide the best result. It also explicitly gives the best method that should be used for landslide susceptibility assessment in the research area.

As explained in chapter 3, prediction rate was used to validate the maps produced by BSA, MSA, and improved method. Landslide susceptibility index maps were crossed with recent landslide inventory maps which were not used to build landslide susceptibility map. The recent inventory map for rotational slide consists of 14 sites with total pixels 222 and the one for translational slides includes 9 sites with total pixels 915. Firstly, the accuracy of mixed types was calculated. The susceptibility can be presented in one map once which involves all types of landslides, if the accuracy is adequate. Basically, both types of landslides can not mix into one susceptibility map because of their different characteristics, but it must be done in order to get the evidence for separating the maps. The results of prediction rate were present in graph form which shows the curve relating the percentage of landslides and predicted area. Figure 6-14

Page 78: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

67

shows the poor accuracies of the prediction rate for mixed types. MSA gives the best prediction with accuracy equal to 46.10%, followed with BSA (26.49%) and improved method (26.12%). The poor accuracies are caused by the definitely difference characteristics between rotational and translational slides. It means that building the susceptibility map should be done in separate.

Figure 6-14 Comparing the prediction rate of 3 methods for mixed types

Based on the assumption that both types of landslides can not be mixed into one susceptibility map, the prediction rates for each types are generated. The figure 6.15 and 6.16 below explain the prediction rates for each landslide type for each method.

Figure 6-15 Comparing the prediction rate of 3 methods for rotational slides

According to figure 6-15, in the prediction rate of rotational slides using MSA, the area under the curve is 0.8158 which gives accuracy 81.58%. It is better that those of BSA (65.37%) and Improved method (53.05%). The result of MSA has a relatively high accuracy, and it becomes the best among all methods. Their low accuracy apparently could happen because the patterns of recent landslides (2007 – 2009) were changing, compared with past landslide (2000 – 2006) pattern.

Based on landslide inventory map, many of past rotational slides occurred in barren land, shrub and shifting cultivation areas, whereas many of recent landslides took place

in settlement, mix garden and shifting cultivation. The past events of landslides have widely distributed for all classes of road distance, whereas most of the recent rotational landslides took place in classes from 0 -100m and there were only a few pixels in class > 100m. The significant changes of recent landslides cause the accuracy of susceptibility map decrease.

The comparison among prediction rate also had been extracted to know the accuracy of three methods for building translational slides susceptibility map as presents in figure 6-16

Figure 6-16 Comparing the prediction rate of 3 methods for translational slides

Based on figure 6-16, some additional descriptions are given for blue line as follow: a) The curve line of MSA method jumps from 0% to 21.42% of percent-landslide. It

appears because 21.42% area of landslide which has probability value equal to 1.0 is covered only in 0.02% of percent map.

b) The horizontally straight line from 0 to 15.04% of percent map explains that there is no new landslide area covered by 15.04% of whole area.

c) The vertically straight line from 25.36% to 99.25% of percent-landslide shows that 99.25% area of landslide is already covered by 18.94% of percent-map.

The longer vertically straight line shows that there are more pixels of landslide sites which have same probability values. The horizontally straight lines presents that there is no new landslide occurrence in certain percentage of map.

Based on that explanation, we can assume that present translational slides occur in many areas with same probability values. Combined with susceptibility index map (see figure 6-9), we can conclude that there are many homogeneity values of susceptibility index map for translational slides. It will also be proof by value’s distribution presented in figure 6-19

The area under the curve of MSA method is 0.8656 which gives accuracy 86.56%. It is better than those by using BSA (82.18%) and improved method (83.40%)

6.6 Defining the best method for assessing the landslide susceptibility In accordance with verification process above, although the differences are not so high, Multivariate becomes the best method to generate the landslide susceptibility map in the research area. It is proved in generating susceptibility map for rotational slide as well as for translational slides. Another rule is that susceptibility maps of both landslide types should be separated, and it purposes to accurately represent the areas prone to landslide types.

Some descriptions below are given to explain the characteristic of improve method in relation with other methods. - To determine the levels of classes, parameters, and groups, improved method

considers the initial weight given from density of landslide in class per density of landslides in whole study area (basic principle of BSA).

- Some classes with a little bit differences of initial weight values were categorized in the same level. This process is not only done for class parameter but also for parameters as well as group parameters.

- Improved method converts the minimum and maximum weighted values in BSA into probability values which spread from 0 to 1.

- After generating the susceptibility index map, it was known that improved method reduces the number of high susceptible pixels. It becomes enhanced when the accuracy of the susceptibility map is quite better than BSA. Thus, by less size of high susceptible area, the improved method still gives a similar accuracy with BSA.

- This method doesn’t consider the correlation among causal factors triggering landslides. It appears to be the fatal weakness of the improved method, if we compare it with multivariate statistical analysis. In multivariate analysis, all instability factors responsible for landslides were treated together. Their interactions support to define the future probability of landslides. It is fairly different with other methods, which compute the frequency of landslides with respect to each input factor separately.

6.7 Determining the classification of susceptibility maps

Landslide index maps have the values from 0 to 1, which there are so many values extracted. The classification of those values is necessary to be done to produce more simple susceptibility map, so dividing process was taken to generate the map into a few susceptibility classes. Standard deviation method was chosen to classify the susceptibility. The class breaks were determined by supported mean value.

The description of classification for rotational slides is presented in figure 6-17.

Standard deviation for rational slides is equal to 0.41, with mean value equal to 0.42 presented in dot-line pattern in the graph. The range values are: low class; 0.00–0.219, moderate class; 0.219 – 0.628 and high class; 0.628 – 1.000. According to the value of class break, the susceptibility maps were generated and presented in figure 6-18.

Standard deviation for translational slides is equal to 0.363, with mean value equal to 0.164 presented in dot-line pattern in the graph. The range values for susceptibility classes are: low class; 0.00–0.346, moderate class; 0.346–0.709 and high class; 0.709 – 1.000. According to the value of class break, the landslide susceptibility maps were generated.

The map represented the classes’ susceptibility of translational slides is depicted in figure 6-20.

Figure 6-20 Final susceptibility map for translational slides Although building the susceptibility map for mixed landslides is not recommended, determining the classification of susceptibility map is still done. It proposes to know the differences of spatial distribution with other types of landslide.

Based on standard deviation method, the susceptible areas for mixed landslides were categorized into 4 (four) classes. The number of susceptibility classes for mixed landslides is more than that for either rotational slides or translational slides. It could happen because of the different pattern of the spatial distribution.

Standard deviation value is equal to 0.276, with mean value equal to 0.332. The range values for susceptibility classes are: low class; 0.00–0.194, moderate class; 0.194–0.471, high class; 0.471 – 0.747 and very high class; 0.747 - 1.000. The class breaks of susceptibility map for mixed landslides are illustrated in figure 6-21.

and settlement areas surrounding the roads are higher which it influences the final weight values.

6.8 Comparison of spatial predictions The aim of this comparison is to generate the similarities of spatial susceptibility distribution among three methods used. All classes of susceptibility maps resulted by three method were crossed while the comparisons were done for each method. The first step is to generate the class susceptibility for each landslide type in each method. The classification is determined by using class break of the best method (logistic regression). It must be done to uniform the number of susceptibility classes. For example; based on standard deviation, the susceptibility map of rotational slide by using logistic regression has 3 classes. It is different with what classified in improved method where there is 4 susceptibility classes. Another problem appears in the susceptibility index value of bivariate statistical analysis. The BSA’s values are ranging from less than 0 to more than 1, while the class breaks are distributed only for probability value (from 0 to 1). The proposed solution is using the conversion process. All of susceptibility index values were added by absolute minimum value, so the lowest value in BSA is equal to 0. The next step is converting the resulted values to probability values. The resulted values were divided by the resulted maximum value, so the highest value is equal to 1. The next process is generating the susceptibility classes for each method by using standard deviation value of the best method. Then the results were crossed to extract the areas which were classified as the same class. The matrix of spatial prediction for rotational slides is presented in the table 6-19. Table 6-19 the matrix showing the areas classified as the same class of rotational susceptibility (in percentage of study area)

Logistic Regression 41.58% 100.00% 18.80%

Improved method 28.32% 18.80% 100.00%

In addition of matrix above, the area classified as the same class of three methods is equal to 02.15% of research area.

The matrix of spatial prediction for translational slides susceptibility is also generated which is presented in the table 6-20

Table 6-20 the matrix showing the areas classified as the same class of translational slides susceptibility (in percentage of study area)

BSA 100.00% 36.34% 71.65%

Logistic Regression 36.34% 100.00% 43.97%

Improved method 71.65% 43.97% 100.00%

In addition of matrix above, the area classified as the same class of three methods is equal to 28.76% of research area.

Page 85: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

74

According to table 6-19 and table 6-20, the result of logistic regression has more similarities of spatial distribution with improved method than with BSA. By using assumption that the logistic regression is the best susceptibility assessment method in the research area, the matrix shows that improved method has the more accurate result than BSA. Combination between BSA and pair wise method in improved method increases the accuracy of susceptibility map.

Although building susceptibility map for mixed landslides is not recommended, the comparison of spatial prediction is perceived to be done. Different with susceptibility map either for rotational and translational slides, There are 4 (four) susceptibility classes in susceptibility map of mix landslides. It could happen because of well distributed of susceptibility index values. The comparison of spatial distribution is presented in the table 6-21 below.

In addition of matrix above, the area classified as the same class of three methods is equal to 1.43% of research area.

By analyzing three previous tables, we can assume that although prediction rates show that the result’s accuracies of three methods are quite similar, the spatial distributions of susceptibility classes are fairly different. It can be seen in the relatively low percentage of the area classified as same classes. So, determining the appropriate methods of susceptibility assessment is the critical step for defining the prone areas of landslides.

6.9 Defining the areas prone to landslide in Wadas Lintang Sub District

Some combinations of landslide causal factors establish the susceptible area for mass movements. There are few differences of combination causal factors between rotational slides and translational slides. It could happen based on landslide investigations which show that both of types have different characteristics (the levels of class parameters) of landslide density for each factor.

For rotational slides, the areas prone to landslide are the regions covered by shifting cultivation, shrub, mixed garden and field crop. Based on litology, Tmw formation is the highest susceptibility area which contents of grained sandstone, breccia, and andesit basaltic. Based on road distance, the areas with distance to road from 20 m to 80 m are more susceptible for landslide. Slope gradient from 15 – 30 % also has the significant influence to trigger rotational slides.

Crossing map between the class susceptibility maps and village’s boundaries map had been done to extract the prone area administratively, and several villages become the more susceptible area for mass movements. Table 2-2 shows the susceptibility area of rotational slides.

According to table 6-22, all of villages in study area have the areas with high susceptibility to rotational slides. The ranks of prone areas are arranged depend on its ratio between percentage of high susceptibility and village’s total area. The villages with prone area more than 40% are Samogede (63.17%), Ngalian (55.01%), Trimulyo (51.08%), Lancar (49.76%), and Gumelar (40.62%).

The areas prone to translational slides are quite different compared with susceptible areas for rotational slides. In this type, the susceptible areas are covered by mixed garden, paddy field and settlement area. Based on litology, Tmpb formation is the highest susceptible area which contents of breccia, basalt, andesit and limestone. River and road have a significant influence causing the mass movements where areas nearer to either river or road have the higher susceptibility to translational slides. This pattern also occurred for lineament distance where the areas took place from 0 – 60 m have the higher susceptibility. Commonly, translational slides had occurred in the flat (0-3%) and undulating areas (3-8%) which have the highest susceptibility, and it is fairly dissimilar with the areas prone to rotational slides. Basically, translational slides can occur on every class of slope but the classes from 0 – 8% are the most susceptible areas in this sub district. Some reasons of these conditions are: • Settlement areas building on flat-undulating slopes give the more weight for the

soil below. It is increasing the slip of the soil which contents of clay fraction. • In paddy field areas (commonly take place on slope classes 0-8%), the inundating

water increases the water-table above slide surface. It reduces the soil strength and causes the soil above slide surface becomes harmful for sliding. .

• Both of the reasons are supported with lithology conditions containing of basalt and clay-stone materials and positive correlation with lineament distance.

Extracting the susceptibility areas of villages is done by crossing the translational slide susceptibility and administrative maps. The extracted attribute is shown in table 6.23.

CHAPTER 7. CONCLUSIONS, LIMITATIONS AND RECOMENDATIONS

7.1 Conclusions

Based on the result of this research about landslide susceptibility assessment in Wadas Lintang Sub District, several conclusions can be extracted. The detail descriptions of each conclusion have been elaborated in previous chapters. 1. The distribution of landslide events is depicted in the landslide inventory map. The

landslide inventory had been generated by interpreting SPOT imagery as well as reported landslide. All of tentative data had been verified by field observation supported by interviewing local communities. The final result of landslide distribution shows that there are 71 landslide sites which could be differed into two types of mass movement; rotational slides and translational slides. The types of landslide were recognized by observing the character of the mass movements and the dates of occurrences were extracted from report of landslide occurrences published by local authority of Wonosobo Regency. The dates of occurrences for unreported landslide were collected by interviewing local inhabitants..

2. The probability of occurrences rainfall triggering landslides can be assumed as the temporal probability of landslides. The values were generated by means of Gumbel method. The result of this method has an equation Y = 0.0334X – 4.0127, R2 = 0.9811, x is rainfall, and R is correlation coefficient value which show the high correlation between this model and rainfall data used. Yearly, landslide temporal probability of Wadas lintang sub district during 2000 – 2008 are 10 years, 2 years, 5 years, 15 years, 1.58 years, 1.11 years, 1.07 years, 1.25 years and 1.07 years.

3. Number of events was used as a basis to estimate area and volume of landslide in Malamud’s equations. Those formulas were used to extract the landslide magnitude. The result shows that the magnitude of landslide in research area during 2000 – 2009 is in the range 1.848 – 2.565.

4. Based on laboratory investigation, the soil textures in landslide sites were dominated with a high percentage of clay fraction. The plasticity index plotted in Casagrande chart proves that the plastic and very plastic clay dominates the sites of landslide. These characteristics supported by high rainfall events cause the soil to become harmful for sliding.

5. The comparison among three methods proofs that the improved method is less accurate than multivariate statistical analysis to predict the future landslides. From the calculation of prediction rate, multivariate statistical analysis gives the best result. The area under the curve of rational slides by using Logistic regression-MSA is equal to 81.58%. It appears to be the highest accuracy compared with BSA (65.37%) and improved method (53.05%). Based on prediction rate of translational slides, the accuracy of logistic regression – MSA is also the highest one which is equal to 86.56%. It is relatively higher than BSA (82.18%) and improved method (83.40%). The less accuracy of improved method is caused by several reasons. This method is based on the density of landslide per each class parameter applied in bivariate statistical analysis while the correlation among factors is not taken into account. The other reason is that the converting process from weight value in BSA into probability value (from 0 to 1) had caused the reduction of weight values. The subjectivity in determining the level of groups, parameters and class parameter also

Page 89: APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC … · APPLICATIONS OF STATISTICAL AND HEURISTIC METHODS FOR LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY ASSESSMENTS A case study in Wadas Lintang Sub District,

78

become the influence factors which can diminish the final weights of class parameters.

6. The prone areas of landslide in Wadas Lintang Sub District are determined by the combination of several factors based on landslide types. For rotational slides, the areas prone to landslide are the regions covered by shifting cultivation, shrub, mixed garden and field crop. Based on litology, Tmw formation is the highest susceptibility area which contains grained sandstone, breccia, and andesit basaltic. Based on road distance, the areas with distance to road ranging from 20 m to 80 m are more susceptible to landslide. Slope gradient from 15 – 30 % also has the significant influence to trigger rotational slides. The most influencing factors of rotational slides are quite different with those of translational slides. In translational slides, the areas covered by mixed garden, paddy filed and settlement area are more vulnerable. Tmpb formation from litology map shows the significant influence to this mass movements, and the regions with slope gradient 0 - 8% becomes less safety. Distance to lineament, river or road shows the tendency to influence translational slides whereas areas nearer to lineament, road and river become more susceptible. The combinations among all described factors of each type become the highest susceptible for each type of landslide.

7. From the final landslide susceptibility maps, the total high susceptibility area of rotational slides is equal to 36.50% of whole research area. The villages with ratio more than 40%, are listed as follow: Samogede (63.17%), Ngalian (55.01%), Trimulyo (51.08%), Lancar (49.76%), and Gumelar (40.62%). The high susceptible location of translational slides is equal to 14.35% of entire research area where the villages with ratio of high susceptible area more than 20% are Kaligowong (37.11%), Tirip (35.72%), Sumberejo (35.67%), Wadas lintang (28.74%), and Plunjaran (21.47%).

7.2 Limitations Although this research had been conducted and gained some result, some limitations have to be mentioned as follow: 1. The lack of satellite imagery data becomes the main problem of this research. The

available imagery is only SPOT year 2006 with 15 m spatial resolution. It can only be used to identify the past landslide occurrences (2000-2006), and there is no image interpretation for recent landslides (2007-2009). Because of the size of SPOT’s spatial resolution, only the relatively big landslide sites could be recognized. It will be more detail if we can use the higher spatial resolution such as Quick-bird, IKONOS and small format aerial photos.

2. Because of the lack of the map, soil data is only used for determine the soil tendency of landslide sites in the research area. The tendency is extracted by means of laboratory investigation. It will be better if soil data is involved as a parameter in building susceptibility map.

3. Limited data becomes the main problem for extracting magnitude of landslide, so the author just used the simple formulas which were published by Malamud et al. More detail data is purposed to generate the better landslide magnitude.

7.3 Recommendations

Based on this research, some recommendations have been suggested. Generally, the recommendation are separated into two approaches, for future studies which adapting this research and for mitigation plans. 1. In relation with building landslide susceptibility map, a detail remote sensing data

is urgently needed to recognize the location of landslides. SPOT imagery is useful only for identifying the landslide with relatively large size. IKONOS and Quick-bird imageries will helpfully support the detail distinguishing of landslides in study area.

2. There are only 6 (six) factors used in building landslide susceptibility map. Several factors related to influence landslide occurrences should be added into the model. Soil factors are perceived have a big contribution to cause landslide. In this research, soil factors are used only to know the tendency of landslide sites and it is not used as a causal factor. Lineament density, drainage density and distance to settlement also can be used as the causal factors. In short, more accurate analysis can be obtained if more related factors are added.

3. The new assessment method of this research is combining bivariate statistical analysis and pair wise comparison which has less accurate result than multivariate statistical analysis. It will be better if multivariate can be combined with heuristic method

4. Expanding infrastructures such as road and settlement areas should consider the landslide influencing factors of research area. Some evidences show that cutting the gentle slope for building settlement turn out to be the causal factor triggering landslide.

5. Susceptibility map for rotational slides shows that many regions of study area are in the high susceptibility. It is too difficult to make communities staying out from these areas. Slope stabilization methods should be implemented to reduce the possibility of landslide occurrences. Structural mitigation activities such as sub drains, retaining wall, gabion, etc are assumed can diminish the mass movement. Biotechnical mitigation such as planting the deep root vegetation can also be an effective way of slope stabilization

6. In addition to structural mitigation, non structural mitigation can also reduce the effect of mass movement. Increasing the awareness of local communities to mitigate the mass movement is believed as the key to reduce the occurrences and the effects of landslide.
