Our planet has been facing natural hazards since the human population has existed. Numerous events have caused millions of casualties and significant destruction. On the one hand, natural hazards are a major threat to human communities all over the world. However, on the other hand, these events help us learn from our mistakes, help scientists to better understand nature, protect society and benefit from this knowledge.
When analyzed in terms of the number of events in our country, landslides are one of the natural disasters that we frequently encounter. In this article, the concept of disaster and landslide is mentioned in general. It is aimed to produce landslide susceptibility map of Giresun city Centre. In the production of the susceptibility map, GIS stratified best-worst method (BWM) method, which is found to be widely used in the literature, was used. In the evaluations, eleven factors that are mainly effective by reviewing the literature on the occurrence of landslides in Giresun province were taken into consideration: Topographic index, elevation, slope, aspect, land cover, proximity to the river, surface water, NDVI, surface temperature. During the study, these factors were downloaded using Google Earth Engine software language and then mapped in ArcGIS and a new landslide susceptibility assessment model was proposed by integrating GIS stratified best-worst method (BWM).
