Landslide Risk & Early Warning

Understand rainfall, ground saturation and landslide susceptibility across Kenya.

DEMO — Landslide risk information is not yet connected to live monitoring.

Do not use this page for safety-critical decisions.

Kenya landslide risk map

The markers are clearly labelled example locations for interface testing. No county is shown as high-risk, and no hazard boundaries are drawn.

  • Low
  • Moderate
  • High
  • Severe
  • Unknown — insufficient data

These are proposed risk categories. Satellite hazard layers will be added when validated live data is connected.

The demonstration locations are examples for interface testing, not a ranking of county landslide risk. All 47 counties can be selected.

Missing information: 24-hour rainfall, 72-hour rainfall, soil moisture, ground slope, past landslide activity. Because these are unavailable, no risk category can be given.

Test scenarios are for interface checking only. They never create alerts, ticker messages or phone notifications.

What increases landslide risk?

  • Intense or long-lasting rainfall adds a lot of water to the ground in a short time.
  • Soil that is already saturated from earlier rain cannot absorb more water.
  • Steep ground allows saturated soil and rock to move downhill.
  • Slopes that have moved before, or that have cracks and bulges, are less stable.
  • Clearing vegetation, cutting into slopes, quarrying or new construction can weaken a slope.

Regional information like this cannot tell you whether a particular slope, building or road is safe. Always follow instructions from local authorities.

General landslide safety

  • During heavy or prolonged rain, stay away from steep slopes, cuttings and river banks.
  • Watch for new cracks in the ground or walls, tilting trees or poles, sudden muddy water, or unusual rumbling sounds.
  • If the ground starts moving, leave immediately and move sideways out of the path, to higher stable ground.
  • Report cracks, slumping ground or blocked drainage to your local administration early.
  • Follow evacuation instructions from county authorities and emergency services.

Text summary

Selected location: Murang'a. Current landslide risk status: Unknown — insufficient data. Live landslide monitoring is not connected yet, so no risk category is issued for any location on this page.

Planned data sources

These providers are prepared for a future, separately approved integration. None of them is connected or operational today.

    Checking data source status…

    When these sources are connected, each observation will record its provider, timestamp and area covered, and stale or failed data will be shown as such instead of being treated as current.
