Abstract

A proto type of real-time monitoring and predicting system for a landslide during heavy rainfall in Japan, the system with Soil Water Index Normalized by Greatest-value (SWING system), is being developed. We verified the system by monitoring catastrophic landslide disasters in the Kii Peninsula triggered by heavy rainfall of Typhoon No. 12 (Talas), 2011.
