Geologic Hazard Map Series

This feature class identifies the initiation areas of slope movements from entries in the Virginia Slope Movement Geodatabase. The Process Points feature class includes slope movement type, location, dimensions, movement dates, and geomorphic, hydrologic, and other site data for individual slope movements where known. Rock and soil data are associated with individual slope movements using linked tables. Slope movements are classified in general accordance with Cruden and Varnes (1996).
This feature class provides an inventory of known slope movements and serves as a portion of the deliverables for completion of landslide hazard mapping in Albemarle and Nelson Counties.

These slope movement locations represent the location of the initiation of a slope movement. They were identified using a combination of 2016 LIDAR, orthophotography, aerial photography, and geologic field work. Where a slope movement was field verified, the location is accurate within 10 feet (or the typical accuracy of a GPS unit). Where identified from LIDAR, the slope movement is accurate to the horizontal resolution of the LIDAR dataset.
Feature class topology, geometric, and logical errors were identified and fixed iteratively by GMR staff geologists.
These data represent discrete, point locations of known slope movements documented by the Virginia Department of Energy - Geology and Mineral Resources Program in Albemarle and Nelson County, Virginia as of the completion date of the project.
Process point locations and information were entered into the feature class iteratively by Virginia Energy geologists by interpreting several sources. Staff mapped features using direct field observations; 1969, 1972, and 1977 aerial photography scanned and georeferenced for use in a Geographic Information System (GIS); 1994, 1996, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2011, 2013, 2018, and 2022 orthophotography; and a digital elevation model (DEM) derived from a 2.5-foot resolution LIDAR dataset collected in 2016. Virginia Department of Energy geologists conducted fieldwork from October 2019 through July 2023 and collected data at 2,761 field locations. These features were digitized using ArcPro 3.1 GIS software.
