time rainfall data. The model can predict the scale, the triggered time and the spatial distribution of rainfall-induced shallow landslides by considering the spatial and temporal variability of hydro-geological parameters and rainfall intensities. Model calibration was conducted with the use of multi-temporal satellite imaginary. Preliminary results demonstrated that good agreement was found between predicted shallow landslide susceptibility and the inventory. Results predicting landslide susceptibility under 24-hour accumulated rainfall at the 200-year return period and analyzing the hydro-geological characteristics of landslide susceptibility areas can serve as good references for authorities involved in hazard mitigation.
