Short summary
To address the issue of what can influence the occurrence of landslides on a global scale and to what impact those factors can have in a relatively objective way, we proposed to produce a global landslide susceptibility map using the method of logistic regression. We find out that topology may not be the first controlling factor of landslides, and finer resolution of DEM may not significantly contribute to the improvement of landslide model when the location precision of landslides is limited.
