Flood hazard mapping in Perlis, using [GIS] and analytical hierarchy process [AHP] / Muhammad Shahrizad Hussin

Flood is one of the most devasted natural phenomenon that can cause lot of damage to socio-economic of a country. Flood hazard potential mapping is required for management and mitigation of flood in order to reduce and avoid the damage it can cause. This study centers on an evaluation of flood ha...
