Preface
This tutorial has two purposes:
Introducing students of GIS and Disaster Risk Management to Grass GIS software, which is very easy to use, but generally considered having steep learning curve. Introducing students to Landslide Susceptibility Analysis.
Basic knowledge of GIS and concept of landslide susceptibility is required to start this tutorial. Explanations and, especially, figures have made this tutorial long. However, total working time to complete this tutorial should be less than 3 hours after preparation of necessary data. Depending on the area of interest (Study area) and resolution of data, the processing time may differ. I have tried my best to make the tutorial easy to understand. Most of the codes in this tutorial can be directly copy-pasted and run in Grass GIS console. I hope that this tutorial will be useful to some of you.
