Abstract:
Qijiang District is a high-risk area for geological hazards in Chongqing. In this study, Qijiang District is selected as the research area. Based on the topography, geomorphology, geological structure, and DEM data of the region, seven main factors of geological hazards within slope units were extracted, including slope structure, slope gradient, density of geological disaster points, engineering geological lithology, distance to the water system, inclination angle of rock strata, and geological structure. These factors were quantitatively analyzed and combined with field inspection of geological hazards to revise the weights and grading of each factor. The analytic hierarchy process was used to evaluate the susceptibility of geological hazards within slope units. Through this process, this study aims to establish a geological disaster susceptibility evaluation system suitable for Qijiang District.
