This layer (polygons) represents mapped landslides including earthflows, debris slides, and slumps. The data come from a series of Landslide and Related Features Maps and Landslide Potential Maps that cover most of southeastern and south-central Kentucky. Landslides were interpreted from aerial photographs and historical records. The features digitized (lines) depict generalized slope conditions as they existed at the time of field checking (1977-1981). Slope stability may decrease by excavation, loading, and changes in drainage conditions. The data are from preliminary type maps and are suited for general planning purposes only. |
