Traditionally, the statistical methods analyze the relationship between landslide occurrence and related factors(soil depth, soil strength, slope angle, vegetation, etc.) in GIS technique. However, those methods have no mechanical meaning. Therefore, the deterministic model is suggested in this research. The method analyzes the mechanical equilibrium of a potential slide block and then calculates a slope safety factor. Since this method is able to consider the balance of forces applied to the slope and is a more reasonable method for an individual site. In this research, the spatial data is obtained, managed and analyzed using GIS technique. The infinite slope model is used to evaluate factor of safety and analyze the slope stability.

Earthquake induced landslides have caused tens of thousands of deaths and billions of dollars of damage during the last century alone. Determining the potential seismic hazard presented by statically stable slopes is essential for the evaluation of substantial landslide movement during an earthquake. Newmark's method for estimating landslide displacement under dynamic loading was presented and applied to two case studies. A simplified energy-based method was then be developed to estimate the Newmark's displacement.
