The invention discloses a danger division method and application of near-surface soil landslide. According to the method, basic topographical data of a landslide body is determined through field investigation surveying and mapping, the relationship among the slope, the upper slope and the length and the relationship between the side surface slope of the two sides and the width, and the relationship between the lower slope and the length are respectively studied, the relationship are associated and studied, the action mechanism of each influence factor in the landslide is combined, a more precise near-surface soil landslide easy-occurring calculation model is finally build, and the danger division stage of the near-surface soil landslide is determined. Compared with the prior art, the method and the application have the advantages that the easy-occurring model built by the invention fully considers the topographical influence factors of the near-surface soil landslide, in addition, the quantitative mode is used for precisely dividing the landslide danger region, and the method is applicable to various kinds of near-surface soil landslide.
