April 23, 2025
Revised dataset of landslides triggered by the 2011 M9.1 Tohoku earthquake. Point data are presented as a csv with new failure types, source type, and impacts to the build environment classification for mapped landslides. This dataset is an extension of the Wartman et al. (2013) landslide inventory following the Tohoku earthquake, and includes the original landslide IDs and type classification of the original authors. Associated landslide polygons and original mapping details are provided at https://doi.org/10.5066/F7H70DB4
