Abstract :
It´s the key for regional landslide susceptivity assessment to confirm the regional landslide susceptivity factors. Cameron Highlands of Malaysia was selected as the study area. Bivariate statistical analysis method and ArcGIS were used for analyzing the relationships among landslides and environmental factors. Then, Probability Index Model was developed with Landslide Area Density. Lastly, the assessment of landslide susceptivity of Cameron Highlands was performed. The result shows that the model has higher precision.
