By Ulrich Mann, Biswajeet Pradhan, Nikolas Prechtel (auth.), Biswajeet Pradhan, Manfred Buchroithner (eds.)

Terrestrial mass routine (i.e. cliff collapses, soil creeps, mudflows, landslides etc.) are serious varieties of ordinary mess ups often taking place in mountainous terrain, that is subjected to precise geological, geomorphological and climatological stipulations, in addition to to human actions. it's a difficult activity to safely outline the location, sort and task of mass events for the aim of constructing stock documents and power vulnerability maps. distant sensing innovations, together with Geographic details process instruments, let cutting-edge research of the measure of power mass activities and modeling floor techniques for probability and probability mapping. equally, via statistical prediction types, destiny mass-movement-prone parts may be pointed out and damages can to a undeniable quantity be minimized. problems with scale and choice of morphological attributes for the clinical research of mass activities demand new advancements in info modeling and spatio-temporal GIS research.

The booklet is a manufactured from a cooperation among the editors and several other contributing authors, addressing present concerns and up to date advancements in GI know-how and mass routine study. Its primary remedy of this know-how comprises information modeling, topography, geology, geomorphology, distant sensing, synthetic neural networks, binomial regression, fuzzy common sense, spatial facts and research, and medical visualization. either theoretical and useful concerns are addressed.
