Vegetation cover is an important factor for hillslope stability and landslide susceptibility. We explore vegetation recovery at landslide scars at the Aso volcano in Japan using multitemporal high-definition topographic data from UAV and micro satellites from 2010 to 2020. The study area has frequently experienced coseismic- and rainfall-induced landslide events. Results show rapid vegetation recovery at both the rainfall-induced and the coseismic landslide scars. However, site-specific vegetation recovery was determined primarily by topographic parameters, such as slope angle and direction at the local scale.
