The international cross-border project GeoSES-Extension of the operational "Space Emergency System" towards monitoring of dangerous natural and man-made geo-processes in the HU-SK-RO-UA cross-border region HUSKROUA 1702 /8.1. / 0065 was included in Thematic objective 8. TO - Common challenges in the field of safety and security, Program priority 8.1 Support to joint activities for the prevention of natural and man-made disasters as well as joint action during emergency situations of the HUSKROUA ENI CBC Program 2014-2020. Technical University of Cluj Napoca was one of the participants in the project together with the Project Leader Uzhhorod National University, Ukraine and Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice, Budapest University of Technology and Ecomomics, Self-government of Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County. The overall objective of the project is geo-monitoring of natural and man-made processes in the cross-border territory with the aim of preventing emergency situations. The project specific objectives are the following: 1. Reduction of the risks of natural disasters by means of geomonitoring of dangerous landslide and mudflow processes in the valley of the Tisza River; 2. Forecasting the occurrence of heavy rainstorms in cross-boundary areas with the aim of preventing unexpected river floods, 3. Development of a joint innovation strategy for preventing ecological disasters and adopting to change climate in the Carpathian Region. Located at the foot of Solovan Hill, Sighetu Marmației was subjected to numerous landslides. In these conditions, the role of the Romanian partner in the project was to monitor this situation, operations carried out both globally, for the entire municipal territory and neighborhoods and privately through six locations chosen both due to the gravity of events over time and the fact that these landslides had different causes. The paper presents the GIS mechanisms used to generate the landslide risk analysis.
