Earthquake-induced landslides occur more frequently near ridges and have larger, more compact shapes, whereas rainstorm-induced landslides concentrate in valleys and streams.
Comparative analysis across six regions quantified landslide polygons using four geometric properties alongside normalized slope locations for both triggering mechanisms.
Distinct dispersion patterns in runout zones highlight divergent hazard profiles, providing a quantitative foundation to enhance regional emergency planning and mitigation.
