tRIBS-VEGGIE Landslide Model
The tRIBS-VEGGIE-Landslide model couples the eco-hydrological model tRIBS-VEGGIE and the infinite slope analysis in order to compute the factor of safety (FS) of a slope as a response to the soil moisture dynamics.

Data Bank
The data bank will include environmental, societal, and other relevant data for scientific investigations and include landslide events locations. The data set will be populated with the historical and most recent landslide events.
Core idea: provide free and open-source data for scientific knowledge discovery, rapid-responsive investigations, and numerical modeling purposes.
Landslide Portal
Taking full advantage of the data that the Center would produce will require supporting cyber infrastructure for data-model integration.
Core idea: The landslide portal will include a landslide modeling workbench, which provides a single point of access to a variety of distinct types of models for landslides-related processes.
