Pakistan is a flood-prone country and almost every year, it hit by floods of varying magnitudes. This study was conducted to generate flash flood map using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) frequency ratio (FR) models in the ArcGIS 10.6 environment. Eight flash-flood-causing physical parameters were considered for this study. Five based on digital elevation model (DEM), Advanced Land Observation Satellite (ALOS), Sentinel-2 satellite, including distance from river drainage density slope,...
Urban flooding has been an alarming issue in the past around globe, particularly South Asia. Pakistan is no exception from this situation where urban floods with associated damages are frequently occurring phenomena. In Pakistan, rapid urbanization key factor for flooding, which not taken into account. This study aims to identify flood sensitivity and coping capacity while assessing resilience move a step toward initialization of resilience, specifically Peshawar city generally other cities...
The objective of this study is to adopt a methodology for analysing spatial patterns danger forest fire at Margalla Hills, Islamabad, Pakistan. work concentrated on burnt areas using Landsat data and classify severity with different parameters (climatic, vegetation, topography human activities). In addition these four variables, the extent burned was measured. Statistical analysis each scene used measure effect variables. To calculate ratio correlated variable, logistic stepwise regressions...
Globally, major cities are experiencing fast settlement growth, which threatens the equilibrium of socio-ecosystems. In Pakistan, Abbottabad city in particular is urban growth. The main source daily water usage for population these types groundwater (tube–wells). Excessive pumping and high need ground local community affecting subsurface sustainability. this study, persistent scatterer interferometry synthetic aperture radar (PSInSAR) technique with (SAR) images acquired from Sentinel-1 were...
Floods are the most frequent and destructive natural disasters causing damages to human lives their properties every year around world. Pakistan in general Peshawar Vale, particular, is vulnerable recurrent floods due its unique physiography. Vale drained by River Kabul major tributaries namely, Swat, Jindi, Kalpani, Budhni Bara. has a length of approximately 700 km, out which 560 km Afghanistan rest falls Pakistan. Looking at physiography prevailing flood characteristics, development hazard...
To address the critical challenges of manual land records and paper maps in Pakistan similar developing countries, this research introduces a novel web-based Digital Cadastral Land Information System (DCLIS). Leveraging advanced GIS capabilities, including map georeferencing, data visualization, interactive queries, DCLIS provides robust accessible platform for efficient management. It overcomes limitations traditional systems by eliminating time-consuming procedures, minimizing duplication,...
Abstract Due to limited gauge network, Pakistan presents a challenge for cryosphere, hydrological, and ecological studies. Thus, before using precipitation temperature products hydro-climatic applications, they must be properly assessed. This study compared six satellite-based (SBPPs), one product (SBTP), three reanalysis (TRPs) in-situ data assess their accuracy ground gauge-based rainfall measurements the period (2000–2020). The evaluation investigated point-to-pixel on daily, monthly,...
Snowmelt runoff is an important element of the hydrological cycle as global warming and climate change are causing retreat glaciers particularly in northern region Pakistan. These climatic variations cause significant changes snow glaciated environment influence on Indus river contributed by Chitral Basin. The daily discharge River Basin (CRB) over Hindukush area simulated this study using Runoff Model (SRM) model under realistic concentration pathways scenarios period from 2011 to 2020....
