FraneItaliais a geo-referenced catalog of recent landslides affecting the Italian territory. The catalog has beendeveloped consulting online news sources from 2010onwardand it includes both fatal landslide events and events that did not produce physical harm to people. Landslide events are classified considering two numerosity categories and three consequence categories. NUMEROSITY CATEGORIES Single Landslide Events(SLE), for records only reporting one landslide; Areal Landslide Events(ALE), for records referring to multiple landslides triggered by the same cause in the same geographic area. Note: the ALE category has been introduced to simplify collection of the landslide records for the numerous cases when many landslides are mentioned together in the news. CONSEQUENCE CATEGORIES Very severe consequences(C1), for events with victims and/or missing people; Severe consequences(C2), for events with injured persons and/or evacuations; Minor consequences(C3), for events that did not cause physical harm to people. Note: the consequence classification is based on the severity of the effects to human life not considering other consequence measures (e.g., economic loss, environmental damage) INFORMATION on each recorded landslide event includes: data on the location of the event [compulsory entries] day of occurrence of the landslide(s) [compulsory entry] duration of the landslide event [if applicable] number of landslides for ALE [compulsory entry] classes of accuracy of the spatial and temporal data [compulsory entries] source(s) of information [compulsory entries] landslide characteristics [optional entries] phase of activity [optional entry] details on the consequences [optional entries] IMPORTANT NOTE The FraneItalia version 01 uploaded herein is the version 3 of the FraneItalia database uploaded on Mendeley data on 22/07/2021 (DOI:https://data.mendeley.com/datasets/zygb8jygrw/3)that has been removed due to technical issues.
