This $106,512 federal Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Cooperative Landslide Hazard Mapping and Assessment Program (CFDA 15.821) will support the development of a comprehensive landslide inventory for south-central Indiana. The Indiana Geological and Water Survey (IGWS) at Indiana University will utilize statewide LiDAR data to map landslide-prone areas and conduct field investigations to validate landslide locations and characteristics. The project aims to fill data gaps and enhance Indiana's hazard management efforts by creating a publicly accessible database with detailed information on landslide locations and attributes. The deliverables include a digital compilation of field photos and notes, integration of landslide data into the IGWS inventory, an interactive ArcGIS StoryMap, and public access to the landslide inventory. This project represents a pivotal step toward the long-term goal of creating detailed landslide susceptibility maps for southern Indiana, ultimately improving emergency preparedness, infrastructure resilience, and risk management for local stakeholders.
