About Shire

SHIRE (Susceptibility Hazard mappIng fRamEwork) is a tool to facilitate and streamline landslide susceptibility and hazard mapping using a Random Forest classifier. It provides support for repetitive steps in landslide susceptibility and hazard mapping such as input dataset generation including data pre-processing. It is a Python-based modular framework that can be complemented with individual modules necessary for answer individual mapping challenges due to the open-access nature of the code.

Shire was developed as part of the KISTE Project

Getting Started

Please make sure to set up a virtual environment before installing the prerequisites. This is important as some packages might have dependencies among each other. Furthermore, the current version of the framework still uses numpy.interp2d which has recently been announced to be deprecated.

The framework was developed using Python 3.7

Then, clone the repository to your local system and you are ready to go.

Prerequisites

The framework has been developed and tested on a MacBook Pro using MacOS Monteray 12.7. Testing of the framework on other operating systems is planned.

There are known issues with using the tkinter python package which is used for the gui in the python editor Spyder. In that case it is recommended to start the script from the command line using

   python shire.py

Installation

After setting up the virtual environment, clone the repository

   git clone https://git-ce.rwth-aachen.de/mbd/shire.git

and then install the prerequisites in requirement.txt

   pip install -r /path/to/requirements.txt

How to use SHIRE

SHIRE is available as plain python code (called Plain version) or as a version with user interface (called GUI version). Please refer to the documentation in Docs which summarises all necessary preperatory steps for both versions, explains settings and options and describes the output files of the framework.
