| dc.description.abstract | Landslide constitutes a frequent problem occurs in Manado. It happens for many times from year to year and brings
both material disadvantage and casualty. The way and hilly topography of Manado, unstabel geological condition, high rainfall,
and the improper land use are assumed to be the trigger for the problem. The objective of this study is to inventory and map
landslide potential area as well as to design the preventive plan. Mapping method employs spatial approach by using land unit
as the analysis unit. The technique of analysis applies the assistance of GIS with its ArcView soft ware.
The result of mapping shows that the level landslide potential from potential until very potential category in
Manado is 1.815,72 Ha; potential is 1282,10 ha and very potential category is 533,62 ha. The faktors cause the
landslide comprise of rocky declivity, high rainfall, and the condition of stone as well as the unstabel and porous soil. The
existence of Cesar zone extends to the center of the city and the use of settlement land located in improper zone become
the trigger that quicken the occurrence of landslide.
The strategy implemented to manage the landslide potential area can be carried out through 1) law enforcement
in relation to city lay out, 2) landslide prevention through civil and vegetative technique, 3) the improvement of social
consciousness of the danger of landslide disaster and the attempt for social empowerment, and 4) the provision of the
landslide potential danger map as the ground for policy making in the effort to manage the landslide disaster. | en_US |
