Abstract
The treatment of the obtained data which is easy to be collected from the weathering crust in north-west region of North Vietnam and the UTM maps by statistical analysis could contribute to the quantitative characterization of the area with high potential for landslides related to the weathering crust. The functions, established on the basis of statistical analysis of the natural factors affecting landslides related to the weathering crust, could be used for identifying the area with high potential for landslide, forecasting the occurrence of landslide, occurrence of each type of landslides related to the tropical weathering crust in the region with similar natural conditions as north-west Vietnam.
