Assessment of areas prone to geological hazards is fundamental for disaster reduction. In this paper, the data of topography, rock groups in engineering geology, geological structure, hydrogeological conditions, and human engineering activities are employed as factors for such assessment. Then in combination with the subjective experience of experts, the zonation result is further modified to achieve scientific evaluation. namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Taking Jinning County of central Yunnan Province as an example, the result shows that the method is feasible.namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
