Landslides are determined as the motion of debris, mass of rock, or earth down a slope due to gravity effect. They are classified among the most dangerous and catastrophic natural hazards, being a significant threat to property and human life, moreover causing several indirect implications such as blocking of streams and aggregation of rivers, flash-flood occurrence, destruction of agricultural land, etc. Engineering geology mapping includes basic previously derived information for urban development decision making in a territory, and it can facilitate important socioeconomic savings if a prior decision consider the area’s natural hazards and spatial distribution. Prediction or identification of a landslide is an area is essential to minimize or control intensity of landslide hazard. Usually, it is done using costly procedures as surveying, monitoring, or soil testing, which are not affordable or feasible in rural areas with very little resources. The objective of geotechnical mapping is to analyses the data and suggest preventive measures before hazards like landslides. Several kinds of maps are used to depict danger from landslides. Landslide susceptibility maps describe the relative likelihood of future land sliding based solely on the intrinsic properties of a locale or site. Remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques are useful for landslide susceptibility mapping and can help identify the areas best suited for developmental activities Therefore, landslide susceptibility maps represent a powerful tool since they provide coherent information on potentially unstable slopes. It is an important step prior to landslide assessment planning, management and disaster mitigation.
