<![CDATA[South Leitimur District is one of the districts in Ambon City where landslides often occur, and this disaster causes many losses. One of the mitigation efforts is mapping areas with the potential for landslides to determine their distribution and risks. This study aims to apply the slope morphology method to identify landslide-prone areas in South Leitimur Regency. This study uses a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) extracted into the shape of slopes and slopes and processed using ArcGIS 10.8 software. This study uses the slope morphology method or SMORPH to identify and classify areas with potential landslides based on the matrix between the slope's shape and angle. The results of the study were classified into four classes of landslide potential, namely very low potential with an area of 2,489, 53 ha, low with an area of 3,278, 22 ha, medium with an area of 672, 32 ha, and high with an area of 685, 67 ha. Hutumury Village is a village that has the largest landslide potential area in each class of landslide potential in the South Leitimur District; this is because this village is a village that has the most significant area compared to other villages. The village that has a low landslide potential is Ema Village. The results of this study also illustrate that the higher the slope with convex or concave slopes, the higher the potential for landslides. The results of this study are expected to help the government of South Leitimur Regency in efforts to mitigate landslides in the future.]]>
