The available literature is composed of a wealth of published studies and that has identified a large variety of challenges and innovations in this field. This review presents a comprehensive up-to-date overview focusing on the topic of DdLSM. This research begins with an introduction of the theoretical aspects of DdLSM research and is followed by an in-depth bibliometric analysis of 2585 publications. This analysis is based on the Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics database and provides insights into the transient characteristics and research trends within published spatial landslide assessments. Following the bibliometric analysis, a more detailed review of the most recent publications from 1985 to 2020 is given. A variety of different criteria are explored i...

The reliability of input data to be used within statistically based landslide susceptibility mode... more The reliability of input data to be used within statistically based landslide susceptibility models usually determines the quality of the resulting maps. For very large territories, landslide susceptibility assessments are commonly built upon spatially incomplete and positionally inaccurate landslide information. The unavailability of flawless input data is contrasted by the need to identify landslide-prone terrain at such spatial scales. Instead of simply ignoring errors in the landslide data, we argue that modellers have to explicitly adopt their modelling design to avoid misleading results. This study examined different modelling strategies to reduce undesirable effects of error-prone landslide inventory data, namely systematic spatial incompleteness and positional inaccuracies. For this purpose, the Austrian territory with its abundant but heterogeneous landslide data was selected as a study site. Conventional modelling practices were compared with alternative modelling designs ...
