Abstract The research location is in the Purwanegara Subdistrict, Banjarnegara Regency, Province of Central Java. According to the Geological Agency of Indonesia, this location is a landslide-prone area, and many landslides occur yearly. Therefore, it needs a landslide susceptibility map is basic information for landslide mitigation in this area. The parameters used in this research are slope, lithology, distance from structural geology, distance from the river, land use, and rainfall. Using six parameters, the weight of evidence (WoE) method was used to develop a landslide susceptibility map. This research aims to make a zonation of landslide susceptibility in this area. The data were collected by field survey and visiting some related institutions. The landslide data used are 85 landslide events in the last three years. All data was then randomly divided into two groups: 70% as model data sets and 30% as validation data sets. The map of every parameter will be overlaid to create a landslide susceptibility zone. The Area Under Curve (AUC) method validated the final map. The result shows that landslide susceptibility zonation can be divided into four zones: very low susceptibility zone, low susceptibility zone, medium susceptibility zone, and high susceptibility zone. The very low susceptibility zone is mostly located in the north, the low susceptibility zone is mostly in the north and south, the moderate susceptibility zone is in the middle, and the high susceptibility zone is in the middle of the research’s location. The validation results of the success and prediction rates using the AUC method show an accuracy value of 0.86 and 0.82, respectively. According to the validation result, both can be classified as very good.
