Croatian Science Foundation PhD fellow Marko Sinčić gave an introductory lecture at a round table

At the 5th round table of the PRI-MJER project, held on November 12, 2021. at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Rijeka, Junior Researcher – Assistant Marko Sinčić, MSc. (HRZZ DOK-2020-01-2432) held an introductory lecture entitled ” Landslide susceptibility assessment of Karlovac City in M1: 100,000 scale “. The lecture presented the application of the bivariate statistical method Weight of Evidence for the development of the susceptibility model of the City of Karlovac based on a very limited input data, for the production of small scale maps. This method will be used when creating landslide susceptibility maps on the Croatian Science Foundation project LandSlidePlan with the defined methodology. PhD fellow Sinčić explained to the participants of the round table the procedure of making landslide susceptibility maps using sliding precondition factor maps and landslide inventory maps as basic input data. He emphasized the great importance of a representative landslide inventory, and thus the necessity of laser airborne scanning, which was carried out within the project for three selected pilot areas.
