Structurally disturbed zones of Himalaya are among the worst landslide affected regions in the world. Although landslides are induced/triggered either by torrential rain during monsoon or by seismic activity in the region, the inherent terrain conditions characterize the prevailing basic conditions susceptible to landslides. Using remotely sensed data and Geographic Information System (GIS), geological and terrain factors can be integrated for preparation of factor maps and demarcation of areas susceptible to landslides. Moderate to high resolution data products available from Indian Remote Sensing satellites have been utilized for deriving geological and terrain factor maps, which were integrated using knowledge driven heuristic approach in Integrated Land and Water Information System (ILWIS) GIS. The resultant map shows division of the area into landslide susceptibility classes ranked in terms of hazard potential in one of the structurally disturbed zones in western Himalaya around Rishikesh.
