| Abstract;Urban development rapidly expanding from lowland to surrounding hills and mountains poses increasing risks in geo-hazards, including liquefaction during earthquakes, and failure of artificial and natural slopes. Objective of this study is to develop methodologies for assessing vulnerability to these hazards, and technologies for improving the performance of geotechnical works in urban areas. This paper summarizes the results of the study with respect to (1) the use of geotechnical data base for urban areas for assessing vulnerability to liquefaction hazards and identifying priority areas for improvement, (2) prediction of large landslides for hazard mapping, and (3) landslides induced historical earthquake in ancient tomb mound.
