A Web-GIS for the Analysis of Scientific Literature on Earthquake-Triggered Landslides

Earthquake-triggered landslides (EQTLs) are a widespread phenomenon which frequently occur after significant seismic events, causing additional damage and casualties. Over the past two decades, the topic of earthquake-triggered landslides has seen a significant increase in attention from the scientific community. This growing interest is evident through the multitude of articles appearing in international, peer-reviewed journals. In this study, we report the main features of a web-GIS database containing the most relevant scientific articles on EQTLs (i.e., more than 800 articles published between 1984 and 2021). After a description of the structure and utilization method of the Web-GIS, we provide a synthetic analysis of the collected articles, to provide an overview of publication trends on EQTLs theme worldwide.
