Those data have been verified using ground data collection of flood level six month right after Kelantan big yellow flood event in 2014. Other related primary data also have been collected among the 2014 flood victims in Kuala Krai using survey questionnaire. The observed flood level data and other related primary data have been delineated and spatially analysed using ArcGIS to visualize the flood extent maps of each study area in Kuala Krai based on extreme flooding data on 2014.
