Title

Areas affected by landslides following Typhoon Mangkhut in Itogon, Philippines, September 2018

Abstract

This dataset contains the areas affected by landslides triggered by Typhoon Mangkhut in the area of Itogon (Benguet, Philippines) between the 13th and 15th of September 2018. The polygons were mapped using very high-resolution satellite imagery from before and after the typhoon. The pre-typhoon images were captured on 18/02/2018 and the post-typhoon images were captured on 02/03/2019 using the World-View 2 satellite. Google Earth imagery was also used as a supplementary source. The study area covers 570 km2.

Lineage

The polygons of the landslides were mapped by a member of team. The technique to map them was visual observation of evidences of change before and after the typhoon, that would correspond to the appearance of a landslide. The inventory was checked by a different person afterwards.
