Analysis Of Flood Hazard Zones Using Overlay Method With Figused-Based Scoring Based On Geographic Information Systems: Case Study In Parepare City South Sulawesi Province

Abstract

Abstract Flooding is one of the serious problems that befell Parepare City, South Sulawesi Province. This problem has a negative impact on the surrounding community. Proper planning needs to be pursued so that losses from the disaster can be reduced. This study uses an overlay method with scoring between existing parameters, where each parameter is carried out a scoring process by giving the weight and value according to each classification which is then overlaid using ArcGIS 10.3 software. The use of this software utilizes a Geographic Information System (GIS) that can explain and present objects of flood hazard areas in digital form. The parameters which is used in this study are based on Kazakis et al. (2015), namely FIGUSED (Flow Accumulation, Rainfall Intensity, Land Use, Slope, Elevation, Distance to Drainage Network). The results obtained in the form of flood-prone maps where very vulnerable locations have an area of 10.72 Km2 or about 13.04% of the total area of the City of Parepare and the flood index value (FHI) 4.20 - 6.87 including high-hazard zones, have wide 48.04 Km2 or about 58.41% of the total area of Parepare City and the flood index value (FHI) 3.58 - 4.20 including the low hazard zone, and which has an area of 23.49 Km2 or about 28.55% of the total the area of Parepare City and the flood index value (FHI) 2.20 - 3.58 are included in the safe zone. Meanwhile, the causes of flooding in Parepare City are flow accumulation, slope, distance from the river, and landuse.
