Flood hazard and mitigation measures map using Geographical Information System (GIS): A case study at Ipoh City, Perak / Suhaimi Asbanni

In recent years, Malaysia has often been shocked by the flash floods that hit major cities throughout the state. Statistics show that the amount of rainfall that fell at that time was different from normal. The Department of Irrigation and Drainage Malaysia (DID) has established several guidelines t...

Statistics show that the amount of rainfall that fell at that time was different from normal. The Department of Irrigation and Drainage Malaysia (DID) has established several guidelines to control floods such as Urban Stromwater Management Manual (MSMA), but flood management in all major cities in Malaysia is still quite low and worried.

This study contains three main objectives: i) to identify flood hazard areas, ii) to determine the mitigation measures for reducing flood hazard, and iii) to establish flood hazard and mitigation measures mapping using Geographical Information System (GIS). Ipoh City was chosen as the study area because it recorded frequent floods in recent times. Ipoh City also is the state capital and economy enhancer for the state of Perak.
