Hi all, For anyone interested a research group at nasa is working on automated landslide detection and have released their python code.
The link can be found in the article: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=88319&src=eoa-iotd "The Sudden Landslide Identification Product (SLIP) combs through Earth imagery and analyzes consecutive images of the same location to spot changes in soil moisture, muddiness, and other surface features. The program also compares the hill slopes with topographic information derived from digital elevation models, such as those built from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emissions and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER). By combining this information, SLIP can automatically pinpoint the locations of possible landslides each time a new, cloud-free land image is acquired."
