Landslides, also known as landslips, are several forms of mass wasting that may include a wide range of ground movements, such as rockfalls, mudflows, shallow or deep-seated slope failures and debris flows.
A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope. Landslides are a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity. The term "landslide" encompasses five modes of slope movement: falls, topples, slides, spreads, and flows.
NASA's Landslides Project aims to create a global picture of landslides and their impacts using satellite data and citizen science reports. Learn how to contribute to the open Landslide Repository, explore the Landslide Viewer and the Landslide Hazard Assessment model.
Learn about landslides, their impact, and WHO's response. Find fact sheets, questions and answers, databases and tools, and publications on landslides and related health issues.
