Abstract

Recently, slope failures are disastrous when they occur in mountainous areas adjoining highways. The accidents associated with slope failures have increased due to rapid urbanization of mountainous areas. Therefore, the inspection of slopes is conducted to maintain road safety as well as road function. In this study, we apply a remedy which is comparing existent descriptions to advanced technology using GIS. We utilize a terrestrial LiDAR, an advanced method, to generate a precise and complete road slope model from an expert point of view. In result, we extract hazardous slope information from external measurements referring to the evaluation criteria of external slope stability. We suggest not only the database but also the method of road risk evaluation based on internet GIS.
