NGU Geohazards - Rockfall susceptability in Norway
Map showing Trigger areas - areas where a rockfall may occur, and Runout areas - areas that are affected by a rockfall when a rocfall occurs. The maps have been compiled using a computer model that recognizes the possible source areas/trigger areas in which a rockfall could occur. The criteria used for recognition are the slope of the mountain side and relevant geological information. For each source area/trigger area the runout area of the potential rockfall is calculated automatically using a DEM in combination with the relevant geological information. No field survey has been carried out for the preparation of these maps.

The maps are composed using a computer model that recognizes the possible source areas/trigger areas of rockfall based on the slope on the mountain side and geological information. From each source area/trigger area the runout area for rockfall are calculated automatically. It's not done any field survey in preparing the maps.
