The Puerto Rico Landslide Forecast Network is made up of a collection of monitoring stations installed across the island's rugged landscape.  Stations collect information related to soil moisture conditions and rainfall every 5 minutes and transmit data hourly between 7a-8p local time.  

At present, the network is an experimental array.  The long-term goal is to operationalize the network to be used for 1-, 2-, and 3-day forecasting of conditions that could lead to landsliding across Puerto Rico.  Data from the network stations is available at a USGS webpage or on a dedicated page for each site (see list below).
