Performance of frequency ratio and logistic regression model in creating GIS based landslides susceptibility map at Lompobattang Mountain, Indonesia

摘要

The purposes of this study is to create a landslide susceptibility map (LSM) for Lompobattang Mountain area in Indonesia. The foot of the Lompobattang Mountain area suffered flash flood and landslides in 2006, which led to significant adverse impact on the nearby settlements. There were 158 identified landslides covering a total area of 3.44 km2. Landslide inventory data were collected using google earth image interpretations. The landslide inventories were prepared out of the past landslide events, and future landslide occurrence was predicted by correlating landslide causal factors. In this study landslide inventories were divided into landslide data for training and landslide data for validation. The LSM was prepared by Frequency Ratio (FR) and Logistic Regression (LR) statistical methods. Lithology, distance from the road, distance from the river, distance from the fault, land use, curvature, aspect, and slope degree were used as conditioning parameters. Area under the curve (AUC) of the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) was used to check the performance of the models. In the analysis, the FR model results in 85.8 % accuracy in the AUC success rate while the LR model was found to have 86.9 % accuracy. However, the accuracy of both these models in AUC predictive rate is the same at around 85.1 %. The LR model is 6.34 % higher than the FR model in comparison to its accuracy for ratio of landslide validation. The landslide susceptibility map consists of the predicted landslide area, hence it can be used to reduce the potential hazard associated with the landslides in this study area.
