The southeast coastal region of China is distinguished by its rugged topography and intricate geological structure.The frequency of landslides disasters is increasing due to the acceleration of urbanization and the severe influence of extreme weather in the southeast coastal region.As a common geological disaster,landslides will cause serious losses to people's lives and property as well as the local economy.In recent years,researchers have strengthened the research on landslide identification and monitoring.Based on the formation factors and instability mechanism of landslide,the application of remote sensing technology,UAV technology,global navigation satellite system,high-density electrical monitoring,borehole monitoring and other technologies in landslide identification and monitoring are discussed in this paper.The future development trend,including the use of artificial intelligence for landslide early warning and the establishment of a complete landslide monitoring system are put forward.The research progress of landslide identification and monitoring in the southeast coastal area is expounded,which has a certain reference value for related research in the future.
