    ISSN xxxx xxxx © 2016 IJESC Research Article Volume 6 Issue No. 7 Landslide Hazard Zonation (LHZ) Of Saiha District, Mizoram, India Using Remote Sensing and GIS Lalrokima Chenkual1, Lalbiakmawia, F2 Laltanpuia, Z D3 Disaster Management Centre, Administrative Training Institute, Aizawl, Mizoram, India1 Public Health Engineering, Aizawl, Mizoram, India2 Directorate of Science & Technology Aizawl, Mizoram, India3 Abstract: Saiha district, Mizoram is prone to natural hazards like landslide, earthquake, etc. Landslide is one of the natural disasters, which involves sliding of mass of earth or rock down the slope along a definite zone or surface. Landslide Hazard Zonation may be defined as a technique of classifying an area into zones of relative degrees of potential hazards by ranking various causative factors operative in a given area based on their influence in initiation of landslides. Landslide Hazard Zonation map is prepared based on the integration of data acquired from various geo-environmental thematic databases. Combining various controlling parameters by giving different weightage value for all the themes, the final map is derived in a GIS environment on 1:50,000 scale. The area and the map is then classified into Very high, High, Moderate, Low and Very low hazard zones. Very High Hazard Zone constitutes an area of 138.44sq. km and forms 9.89% of the total district area and High Hazard Zone occupies 340.85sq. km which is 24.35% of the total district area while Moderate Hazard Zone constitute an area of about about 598.07sq. km and occupies 42.72% of the total district area; Low Hazard Zone extends over an area of about 279.47sq.

Siaha district is comprised of numerous hills and valleys and is rich in vegetation and forests. Jhum cultivation is still widely practiced as the traditional farming system. The cropping pattern of the Siaha district is characterized by the predominance of rice as the lead crop. Agricultural crops account for more than 65 percent of the gross cropped area which indicates the prevalence of subsistence agriculture and lack of crop diversification.
