13 25/2/5 Conclusions Acknowledgement A method, based on SOM, cluster analysis, and was proposed in order to identify slopes with higher hazard The characteristics of slopes can be represented in categorical data. This study was funded by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (245254), for which I wish to express my gratitude here. The categorical data can be applied into three analytical methods. The proposed method can identify slopes with higher hazard. The proposed method can prioritize these slopes according to hazard. Thank you for your kind attention!
