The California Geologic Survey has published a new map of landslide susceptibility for the entire state of California. It addresses only deep-seated landslides, not shallow slides such as debris flows. The criteria used for developing the map included slope angle, geology, rock shear strength and history of landslides in a given area. You can download the map for free from the California Geologic Survey.
