It is well known that small topography contributes significantly to the occurrence of earthquake-induced landslides. Simple estimation methods that use geospatial information include the Rokko formula (Uchida et al., 2004), which uses slope and curvature and peak ground acceleration (PGA), and its improved version, the modified Rokko formula (Kamiya et al., 2012). Generally, a digital elevation model (DEM), which is the gridded elevation data, is used to calculate slope and curvature. However, it is well known that the values of topographic quantities such as slope vary depending on the quality and grid spacing of the DEM source data (the so-called scale issue of DEM). In this study, using the GSI's national DEM, which is a nationwide DEM open to the public, we examined the collapse hazards of the modified Rokko formula obtained from DEM10B and the 10-m DEM , which incorporates DEM5A and other data, was quantitatively verified against inventory maps of landslides that occurred during actual earthquakes.
