Abstract
This is a report describing a quantitative landslide risk assessment carried out in the Cairns area as part of the AGSO Cities Project. The study objective is to provide information on landslide types, conmunity vulnerability and risks to the Cairns City Council for planning and emergency management purposes. Using geological and geomorphological observations and historical information, a regional map of landslide hazards in the Cairns area has been produced. This map was entered into a geographic information system (GIS) containing comprehensive information on buildings, roads and demography.
