Landslide Inventory and Disaster Management Based on Community Participation for Sustainability Environment in the Volcanic Area

Abstract

Landslides are still an essential problem for areas with rough morphology. There are several ways to map landslide vulnerability that can be used to reduce disaster risk. To produce maps with high accuracy is one of the challenges. This study proposes a community-based landslide inventory mapping approach. Communities are important in providing information about disaster events and are essential to disaster management. The aims of this study are 1) to conduct field investigations for the community for landslide inventory; 2) to identify and analyze the role of the community in disaster risk reduction for a sustainable environment. The method used in this research is using participatory mapping (P-GIS) and focus group discussion. The community is participatively asked to reconstruct past landslides. Community-based landslide data inventory using geospatial technology in the form of remote sensing imagery as support. The results of community participation showed that there were 138 landslides with translational and rotational landslide typologies. There is a community role in reducing the risk of landslides through the Taji Village Disaster Preparedness Community (SIBAT). The management model for land management carried out by the community is based on the principles of environmental sustainability in the form of easy application, local-based materials, local-based culture, and local-based knowledge, and provides sufficient economic income.
