Landslide databases are key elements used for assessing the vulnerability and the risk associated with landslide hazard. Also these databases show us to what extent the landslides produce damages to the society, which are the most vulnerable parts and also add an important component to hazard analysis, by showing the temporal distribution of the phenomenon. Recently, this type of databases is used also for landslide rainfall initiation threshold analysis, being the base of landslide early warning systems at national and regional level.
