Abstract
This paper presents a study on the landslide susceptibility assessment for the La Catola torrent catchment area, in the north western part of the Apulia Region (Southern Italy), using a computerized methodology in GIS environment. The proposed methodology is based upon geologic and geomorphologic surveys, geotechnical characterization of involved materials and time series analysis of hourly and yearly rainfalls for the period 1965–2001. Appropriate thematic data were analytically combined and superimposed on a base map using the spatial analyst tools available with ArcMap 10-ESRI, for providing the landslide susceptibility map of the study area.
