Statewide Landslide Information Database Released
DOGAMI created the Statewide Landslide Information Database for Oregon to improve the understanding of the landslide hazard in Oregon and to create a statewide base level of landslide data. The landslide database is the first step in a comprehensive and systematic approach to cataloging the nature and scope of landslides in Oregon and should serve as useful tool for differentiating areas of higher and/or lower hazard. This information is basic to emergency and land use applications by helping identify vulnerable areas that may require planning considerations and in prioritizing mitigation measures that may need to be implemented to reduce future losses.

To achieve this goal DOGAMI has formed the Oregon LIDAR Consortium (OLC), which will develop cooperative agreements for the collection of high-quality LIDAR that benefits the public at large, the business community, and agencies at all levels of government.
