Abstract

It is challenging to monitor landslides due to their heavy concealment and the extreme destructiveness during the long development of landslides. Many landslide monitoring tools are somewhat onefold. In this paper, a comprehensive landslide monitoring method involving multiple factors from time-series multi-data sources is proposed. We focus on the changes in three aspects consisting of the vegetation condition, the surface deformation information and the landslide susceptibility. Firstly, the fractional vegetation cover of the landslide is extracted from optical remote sensing Gaofen-1 (GF-1) images using the dimidiate pixel model. Next, the surface deformation information of the landslide is derived from SAR remote sensing Sentinel-1A images applying the SBAS-InSAR method. Then, the landslide susceptibility based on GF-1, Sentinel-1A images and DEM data is computed using the analytic hierarchy process method. Finally, the spatio-temporal correlations of the vegetation condition, the surface deformation information and the landslide susceptibility are compared and interpreted. The Temi landslide is located along the Jinsha River and poses a high risk of blocking the river. Taking the Temi landslide as the study area, it is indicated from the results that the fractional vegetation cover, surface deformation information and landslide susceptibility reveal a consistency in the patterns of changes in spatial and temporal terms. As the surface deformation information improves, the status of the landslide vegetation also deteriorates and the landslide susceptibility becomes high, which indicates an increased probability of the creep and even the occurrence of landslides. In contrast, when the surface deformation information drops, the vegetation condition of the landslide becomes superior and the landslide becomes less susceptible, which means the likelihood of sliding declines. This study provides a new idea for a landslide monitoring method and potential way for natural disaster prevention and mitigation.
