Abstract: Slope erosion is one of the major geological disasters that causes pipeline damage. The damage induced by slope erosion involves a complex process and is affected by multiple indicator factors. In this study, the weights of each indicator factor are determined based on the entropy weight method. The distance to the water outlet is found to possess the highest weight of 24%. Furthermore, a 50 m buffer zone is constructed along the two sides of pipeline using GIS. The erosion strength of the buffer zone is obtained by performing a spatial weight stacking analysis. Taking the erosion strength of the disaster site as a statistical indicator, we performed statistical analyses of six parameters, including the impact resistance of slope erosion, permeability, vegetation, slope, distance to water outlet, and water volume. The results show that the slope erosion strength is positively related to the permeability, the slope, and the water volume. The impact resistance and vegetation are found to be negatively related to the erosion strength. In summary, the erosion strength becomes stronger with decreasing distance to the water outlet.
