Hi Paul, Old US maps of the area are available there : http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/pakistan.html
Professor David Petley's blog is very interesting : http://daveslandslideblog.blogspot.com/ This subject was mentioned on HOT list : http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/hot/2010-May/000115.html Mapping of the area could certainly be improved, including upstream of the landslide dam. And David Petley has estimated that a catastrophic breach could have consequences down to the Tarbela dam. Unfortunately, there does not seem to be many OSM-compatible sources available, beside Landsat and the above maps.
