Description: This raster dataset is a 10-meter resolution landslide susceptibility grid, where each cell is assigned a susceptibility score. There are eight possible scores, with higher numbers representing greater susceptibility to deep-seated landslides. The study area encompasses all of Teton County, Wyoming south of Yellowstone National Park.
Description: This study uses a combination of slope and rock strength to convey regional susceptibility to deep-seated landslides in Wyoming. It is intended to provide government officials, the public, and other users a generalized dataset for regional analysis of landslide potential. Statewide deep-seated landslide susceptibility was developed utilizing methods tested by Wilson and Keefer (1985), Ponti and others (2008), and Wills and others (2011). Susceptibility was assigned using the classification matrix based on the slope from the 30-meter digital-elevation grid of the National Elevation Dataset and rock strength,derived from statewide geologic mapping and descriptions developed in Love and Christiansen (1985), and rock types from Stoeser and others (2005).This map does not display susceptibility to debris flows or other shallow landslides, nor is it appropriate for site-specific evaluation
