Modelling landslide using GIS and RS: a case study of upper stream of Langat river basin, Malaysia

Increasing pressure for development in Malaysia in recent years due to rapid population growth and urbanization has caused numerous environmental related problems such as landslide and soil erosion. Increasing landslide event in Malaysia has caused degradation to properties, life and environment. Th...
