1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background Landslides usually occur in the watershed upstream. Natural disasters landslides as one natural phenomenon are also one of the environmental problems that often occur in the province of North Sumatra, Indonesia. The upstream watershed Deli is located in Karo Regency. Karo Regency is an area that has the potential for landslides; this region is mostly located in the highlands. Many factors can affect the stability of slopes that lead to the occurrence of landslides. These factors include: geological and hydrological conditions, topography, climate and weather changes. According to Priyono et al. (2006), the potential for soil erosion can be minimized by empowering communities to identify typologies of landslide prone slope lands, the early symptoms of the slope will move, and efforts should be done early anticipation. Effective early warning system should be made based on predictions, when and where landslides will occur also actions that should be done when disaster strikes. Geographic information systems can be used in determining the priority areas for disaster relief. According to Burrough (1986), a geographic information system (GIS) is a powerful set of tools for collecting, storing, retrieving, transforming and displaying spatial data from the real world for a particular set of purpose. GIS technology integrates common database operations such as query and statistical analysis with the unique visualization and geographic analysis benefits offered by maps (ESRI, 2007). An area most vulnerable to disasters is a main priority in conducting mitigation measures. By this research, it is known that areas prone to landslides, so early prevention can be done. If the anticipation is not immediately done, losses due to landslides would not be inevitable. 1.2 Objective This study generally aimed to identifying and mapping of landslide prone areas in Karo Regency and provided advice to the government in an effort to support the handling of dangerous landslides.

2. MATERIAL AND METHODS

2.1 Description of the Study Area The research was conducted in Karo Regency (the upstream of Deli Watershed). Geographically, it is located between 2050’ - 3019’ LU dan 97055’ - 98038” BT (Figure 1). This research was conducted during January to July 2010. Data analysis and processing were performed at the Laboratory of Integrated Forest Management, Department of Forestry, University of Sumatera Utara.

2.2 Data Collection This research used data such as: earth feature of Indonesia map/Peta Rupa Bumi Indonesia (RBI) or what is called as basic map with scale 1:50.000, slope map, geological map and land cover/land use map. Processing was done with overlaid each parameter to determine landslide hazard using Geographic Information System.

3. RESULT AND DISCUSSION

Based on the district in Karo Regency, the distribution of landslide prone consists of five classes, namely: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. Distribution of landslide hazard based on the district was not evenly distributed in each sub-district as is presented in Figure 2. (based on analysis on the map and checking in the field). Each class of landslide hazards was marked with different colors. Landslide

Characteristics of landslides are most commonly found in Indonesia is the type of landslide translational and rotational (KESDM, 2008). There are characteristics of landslides was found in the area, namely: translational landslides, landslides of rotation, and movement of the block. Characteristics of landslides in areas of research have different extents in each sub-district (Table 1). Based on Table 1, the characteristics of landslides were most commonly found, namely: the Sub-district of Tiga Binanga (very high), Sub-district Mardingding (high, low, and very low). Table 1.

Tiga Binanga Sub-district has the very high landslide in Karo District with an area of 477.27 ha, because of the soil was dominated by Dystropepts, Tropudults, Humitropepts, land cover was agricultural land, dry slopes above 45%, and the type of rock is a Mixed-Sediment (silt/mudstone). The most influential in the level of landslide hazard in the Tiga Binanga Sub- District was slope. Mardingding Sub-district, an administrative district that has the greatest area when compared with other Sub-districts in Karo Regency. The extent of 3.203,82 hectares and is a district that has a high level of landslide hazard in the Karo district with an area of 2.476,73 ha. The types of soil were Tropudults and Dystropepts, land cover was dominated by secondary forest of dry land, the type of rock was a sediment-mixture, and the slope was above 45%. Landslide conditions are depicted in Figure3.

According to Marwanto et al. (2007), an area determined to have potential for landslides if it meets three requirements, namely: the slope is quite steep, has a glide plane of the surface soil layer beneath the semi-permeable and soft and there is enough ground water to meet the above fields the sliding. With a high percent slope, then the incidence of landslides are only waiting for the trigger factor is rainfall or earthquakes. Based on the results, the higher the percent slope of the land, the greater the potential for landslide. It is also clarified by Wahyunto et al. (2003) and Arsyad (2006). Soil type is one of the parameters determining the level of erosion. According Haifani (2008), the occurrence of landslides is generally caused by the presence of a large thickness of loose soil. With the rain, the rate of erosion will be higher. Furthermore, according Budiono (2003), soil texture also affects the absorptive capacity of a soil.

4. CONCLUSION

The class which very high landslide hazard contained in the Sub-district of Tiga Binanga, there was a high class in the Sub-district Mardinding, while other classes (medium, low and very low) spread over several Sub-districts in Karo Regency. The main causes of landslides in this area mainly due to the slope factor, type of rock, soil, and land use.
