“…This includes the use of remote sensing, GIS (Geographic Information System), and numerical modeling to monitor and predict floods. Advanced flood forecasting systems provide early warnings to communities, while river engineering techniques focus on floodplain management, channelization, and the construction of retention basins to reduce flood risks (Garnica, et al, 2021). Japan utilizes innovative methodologies for landslide monitoring, early detection, and prevention.…”

This research paper explores Japan's experiences in advancing resilience and fostering sustainable development through strategic investments in cutting-edge technology and innovative methodologies for disaster risk reduction. Japan, a country prone to natural disasters, has developed a comprehensive approach that encompasses strong governance, continuous learning, community empowerment, public awareness, and international collaboration. Through a mixed-method research methodology incorporating qualitative and quantitative analyses, this study examines Japan's robust disaster risk reduction framework and the role of cutting-edge technology in mitigating the impacts of hazards. The findings highlight Japan's multi-hazard approach, stringent building codes, and resilient infrastructure, which have significantly reduced disaster risks. The integration of innovative methodologies, such as community empowerment and early recovery planning, has fostered resilience at the grassroots level. Furthermore, the research showcases Japan's use of advanced technologies including early warning systems, remote sensing, and geospatial technologies. The lessons learned from Japan's experiences provide valuable insights for countries seeking to enhance their disaster risk reduction efforts and promote sustainable development. By investing in cutting-edge technology and adopting innovative methodologies, countries can effectively reduce disaster risks, build resilience, and foster sustainable development in the face of evolving challenges and hazards.

“…Even methods that have gained prominence in recent years, such as structure-from-motion from aerial photographs [21,22] and UAV [23], still need to incorporate ground control data [24][25][26]. Remote sensing has therefore considerably helped the field of detection and mapping of mass movements, even if there is still scope to develop the method further for disaster-risk research [27]. Because understanding of the physics of mass movements is still in its infancy, remote sensing is an essential method for broadening the available databases on the geometry and precursory signs of mass movements.…”

On 6 September at 03:08AM local time, a 33 km deep earthquake underneath the Iburi mountains triggered more than 7000 co-seismic mass movements within 25 km of the epicenter. Most of the mass movements occurred in complex terrain and became coalescent. However, a total of 59 mass movements occurred as discrete events and stopped on the semi-horizontal valley floor. Using this case study, the authors aimed to define planar and vertical parameters to (1) compare the geometrical parameters with rain-triggered mass movements and (2) to extend existing datasets used for hazards and disaster risk purposes. To reach these objectives, the methodology relies on LiDAR data flown in the aftermath of the earthquake as well as aerial photographs. Using a Geographical Information System (GIS), planform and vertical parameters were extracted from the DEM in order to calculate the relationship between areas and volume, between the Fahrböschung and the volume of the deposits, and to discuss the relationship between the deposit slope surface and the effective stress of the deposit. Results have shown that the relation S=k[Vd]2/3 (where S is the surface area of a deposit and Vd the volume, and k a scalar that is function of S) is k = 2.1842ln(S) − 10.167 with a R2 of 0.52, with less variability in deposits left by valley-confined processes compared to open-slope processes. The Fahrböschung for events that started as valley-confined mass-movements was Fc = −0.043ln(D) + 0.7082, with a R2 of 0.5, while for open-slope mass-movements, the Fo = −0.046ln(D) + 0.7088 with a R2 of 0.52. The “T-values”, as defined by Takahashi (2014), are displaying values as high as nine times that of the values for experimental rainfall debris-flow, signifying that the effective stress is higher than in rain-triggered counterparts, which have an increased pore pressure due to the need for further water in the material to be moving. For co-seismic debris-flows and other co-seismic mass movements it is the ground acceleration that “fluidizes” the material. The maxima found in this study are as high as 3.75.

“…The growing use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has been a real milestone in Earth observation, and therefore, in landslide research [8,9]. The first approaches were based on the successful exploitation of UAVs with compact cameras for the rapid identification of landslides [10].…”

Landslides are among the most dangerous and catastrophic events in the world. The increasing progress in remote sensing technology made landslide observations timely, systematic and less costly. In this context, we collected multi-dated data obtained by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) campaigns and Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) surveys for the accurate and immediate monitoring of a landslide located in a steep and v-shaped valley, in order to provide operational information concerning the stability of the area to the local authorities. The derived data were processed appropriately, and UAV-based as well as TLS point clouds were generated. The monitoring and assessment of the evolution of the landslide were based on the identification of instability phenomena between the multi-dated UAV and TLS point clouds using the direct cloud-to-cloud comparison and the estimation of the deviation between surface sections. The overall evaluation of the results revealed that the landslide remains active for three years but is progressing particularly slowly. Moreover, point clouds arising from a UAV or a TLS sensor can be effectively utilized for landslide monitoring with comparable accuracies. Nevertheless, TLS point clouds proved to be denser and more appropriate in terms of enhancing the accuracy of the monitoring process. The outcomes were validated using measurements, acquired by the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS).
