Abstract
- Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) research is vital for averting and mitigating regional landslide disasters. Nevertheless, there has been a lack of systematic analysis regarding LSM's developmental drivers. Utilizing SciMAT, a scientometric tool, we analyzed 1661 papers on LSM from the Web of Science core collection database, spanning 1993 to 2022. We employed cluster and thematic evolution analysis in SciMAT to unveil trends. The results indicate a consistent upward trend over the past three decades. LSM modeling methods, geological data, and contributing factors are major focal points. Notably, the evolution of LSM models, with a rising adoption of machine learning and deep learning for risk assessment, emerges as a central knowledge pathway. This study offers valuable insights to scholars by identifying literature gaps and highlighting crucial research directions, facilitating informed decision-making in the realm of LSM. SciMAT tool initially employs cluster analysis and thematic evolution analysis to pinpoint the current popular themes and evolutionary trends of landslide susceptibility. The main trajectory of knowledge lies in the progression of landslide modeling methods. The latest trend in landslide susceptibility research is centered on the use of deep learning techniques, particularly convolutional neural networks, to achieve precise risk zonation. The study aims to highlight critical research directions, predict the future of LSM technology, and provide guidance for scholars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
