Earth Forensics gathers data and provides statistical analysis of hydrogeological and hydrometeorological effects on the causation of landslides/earth movement throughout the United States.  These earth movements include rock falls, rotational slumps, translational block slides, debris flows, sea cliff erosion, and complex earth movement.  Landslide evaluations involve:

• Hydrometeorologic services (PDF)

• Hydrogeological evaluations

• Review of topographic maps, stereoscopic aerial photography

• Historical aerial photography/satellite imagery interpretation

• Installation of groundwater monitoring wells

• Record, literature and air photograph research

• 3D Geologic modeling

• Forensic investigation of post-development distress

• 3D geological models of landslide and geology

• Evaluation of geologic hazards

• Drone photography

• Expert opinion reports on causation of landslide/earth movement
