The study found that floods have occurred as many as 15 times since 2005. In 2019, flooding covered 200.01 km2 of the watershed (5.51% of the total watershed). Among the areas that flood every year, 15 floods occurred in the lower part of the LSBW basin in Na Udom village, Khok Sawang and Fa Huan village, Rai Khi sub-district, which are in the south of Lue Amnat District, Amnat Charoen Province, as well as in parts of Dum Yai sub-district, Muang Sam Sip district, Ubon Ratchathani. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influence of certain variables on this flooding. The variables showing positive β values were mean annual precipitation and distance to a road. The variables showing negative β values included elevation, terrain, slope, soil drainage, distance to stream, land-use, and distance to village, respectively. All of these variables can be analyzed for their Flood Prone Risk area in GIS. The study found that flood- prone areas at the very high-level flood prone risk areas, with a total area of 638.59 km2 (17.59%), high level flood prone risk areas cover an area of 1,848.10 km2 (50.92%).

  • Geographical Information System Based Model of Land Suitability for Good Yield of Rice in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, Thailand
    Sci., Tech. and Dev., 31 (1): 1-9, 2012 GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM BASED MODEL OF LAND SUITABILITY FOR GOOD YIELD OF RICE IN PRACHUAP KHIRI KHAN PROVINCE, THAILAND WALAYAT HUSSAIN*1, OSAMA SOHAIB1, AFTAB AHMED2 AND MUHAMMAD QASIM KHAN2 1Department of Computer Science, Balochistan University of I.T, Engineering and Management Science, Quetta, Pakistan. 2Faculty of Information and Communication Technology, Balochistan University of I.T, Engineering and Management Science, Quetta, Pakistan. Abstract Correct assessment of land is a major issue in agricultural sector to use possible capability of any land, to raise cultivation and production of rice. Geographical Information System (GIS) provides broad techniques for suitable land classifications. This study is GIS based on land suitability analysis for rice farming in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, Thailand, where the main livelihood of people is rice farming. This analysis was conducted considering the relationship of rice production with various data layers of elevation, slope, soil pH, rainfall, fertilizer use and land use. ArcView GIS 3.2 software is used to consider each layer according to related data. To weigh every coefficient, ranking techniques are used. It was based on determining correlation of rice production and these variables. This analysis showed a positive correlation with these variables in varying degrees depending on the magnitude and quality of these factors. By combining both data layers of GIS and weighted linear combination, various suitable lands have been developed for cultivation of rice. Integrated suitable assessment map and current land were compared to find suitable land in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province of Thailand. As a result of this comparison, we get a land which is suitable for optimum utilization for rice production in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province.
