| Zusammenfassung |
On 9 October 1963 a catastrophic landslide suddenly occurred on the
southern slope of the Vaiont dam reservoir. A mass of approximately
270 million m3 collapsed into the reservoir generating a wave
that overtopped the dam and hit the town of Longarone and other
villages nearby. Several investigations and interpretations of the
slope collapse have been carried out during the last 45 years,
however, a comprehensive explanation of both the triggering and the
dynamics of the phenomenon has yet to be provided.
In order to re-evaluate the currently existing information on the slide, an
electronic bibliographic database and an ESRI-geodatabase have been
developed. The chronology of the collected documentation showed that most of
the studies for re-evaluating the failure mechanisms were conducted in the
last decade, as a consequence of knowledge, methods and techniques recently
acquired. The current contents of the geodatabase will improve definition of
the structural setting that influenced the slide and led to the the
propagation of the displaced rock mass.
The objectives, structure and contents of the e-bibliography and Geodatabase
are indicated, together with a brief description on the possible use of the
alphanumeric and spatial contents of the databases. |
