Abstract: Abstract: 512 Wenchuan earthquakes induced many collapses and landslides which caused serious casualties and property losses. The hazards also brought troubles to the earthquake emergency response and post-disaster reconstruction. Taking earthquake regions in Wenchuan, we got the landslide hazard zoning map by use of the method of contribution weight superposition based on GIS technology. The map can guide post-earthquake emergency response and will be helpful in the overall planning of post-disaster reconstruction.
