Reviewer 1 Report

OK

Author Response

Thank you for your suggestions and recognition of my work. They have important guiding significance for my paper writing and research work!

Reviewer 2 Report

In this work, the authors represented a procedure for mapping post-earthquake landslides using an improved Neural Network approach named U-Net

The title has been chosen properly to describe the content of the paper. The abstract is written well as a stand-alone document to represent the manuscript. he literature review is coherently written and consistently to allow the reader to smoothly follow the scheme of the paper. Not all figures are required for understanding the paper. For example, Figures 1 and 3 represent the same concept. Elements in the manuscript have logically related to the objective of this research. Results and discussion parts are well written. The study only uses one sample data to test the validity of the approach. It is recommended to do the study on a different site as well. The conclusions are sound and justified and follow the presented data.

Reviewer 3 Report

Please fully describe the high resolution data used. Both the DEM and imagery. Is it available VERY soon after an earthquake? We need to see a comparison of the time and cost between the manual interpretation of images, and the 3 computer tests performed. This is important to evaluate the practical use of the method proposed. Describe in simpler terms, what is the impact of splitting the image into 256x256 blocks. Present a realistic estimate of application of your method during a real earthquake emergency. How long to get the imagery? How long to prepare the imagery? How long and where to get the very high resolution DEM? How long to process the imagery? How long (and how) to validate the results of improved Uline? Who will use the data? Have they seen these results, and are they willing to accept them?
