To assess landslide occurrence and impact on transportation networks in the Costa Viola region of Italy.
Conducted geomorphological mapping of the area
Performed multi-temporal analyses and GIS-based spatial data processing
Reviewed historical documentation of landslide events from 1950 to 2025
Mapped 261 landslides affecting 19% of the study area
Landslide distribution is primarily influenced by geological and morphometric factors
66.7% of landslides are sliding movements, with many occurring near faults and streams
Historical data indicates a rise in road damage events over 75 years, particularly since the early 2000s
Most damage events affected the SS18 road, often linked to reactivation of prior landslides
