We have started a new effort to map rainfall-induced landslides in the Acquasanta Terme (AP) and the Roccafluvione (AP) municipalities. In three days, through field surveys conducted along major and minor roads, we have mapped more than 500 landslides in an area of less than 100 square kilometres. Our mapping effort will continue in the upcoming weeks.
