Abstract
Flood estimation is a crucial task for effective water resource management and disaster preparedness. This study focuses on flood estimation in the Kolhapur district using ArcGIS, a geographic information system software. The Kolhapur district, located in India, experiences regular flooding events, leading to significant socio-economic and environmental impacts. Accurate estimation of flood characteristics such as peak flow and flood extent is essential for developing reliable flood forecasting models and designing appropriate mitigation measures. ArcGIS provides powerful tools and functionalities for flood estimation by integrating various data sources such as digital elevation models, rainfall data, and river network information. This study uses these capabilities to analyze the spatial and transient flood patterns of floods in Kolhapur district. Key steps include preprocessing of input data, hydrological modeling, model calibration and validation, and visualization of flood results using ArcGIS. The finding of this study contributes to improved flood management strategies and decision-making processes in the Kolhapur district. The results can be used by water resource authorities, emergency management agencies, and urban planners to enhance flood preparedness, mitigate damages, and minimize the impact of future flooding events.
