ITU GEOHAZARD

An open event-inventory database of rainfall-induced landslides and their environmental characteristics in the eastern Black Sea region of Türkiye Developing robust predictive methods for rainfall-triggered landslides is crucial for effective risk mitigation. Landslide event inventories provide e…

Landslide risks in Türkiye’s Black Sea region are rising due to intense rainfall and forest-to-farm land use changes. A new series of OI maps 10K+ events to aid early warning & mitigation efforts.

An automated approach for developing geohazard inventories using news: integrating natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, and mapping Abstract. Spatiotemporal inventories of geohazards are essential for comprehending the building of resilient societies; yet, restricted access to global inventories hinders the advancement of mitigati...

Spatiotemporal geohazard mapping was achieved by processing 15,000+ online news articles from Türkiye (1997–2023) using web scraping, NLP, and geolocation. As a result 13,940 mapped events floods, wildfires, landslides, and sinkholes. A scalable, open-source approach for data-scarce regions.

Landslide hazards in the area of 2023 Türkiye-Syria earthquake A new paper (Görüm et al. 2025) has examined rainfall-induced landslide hazard in the area affected by the 2023 Türkiye-Syria earthquake.

Our latest article was featured on @eos.org The Landslide Blog, eos.org/thelandslide.... Many thanks to Dave Petley for summarizing this study and increasing its visibility. I have long appreciated his contributions to the field of landslides. Thanks @davepetley.bsky.social

Strong earthquakes in mountain landscapes can trigger widespread slope failures, initiating chains of multiple hydro-geomorphic hazards. These chains can amplify the geohazards and last many years following strong earthquakes.
