Abstract Flooding is a natural event often associated with floodplain areas, characterised by large, sudden and significant rises in river water levels that drastically alters the surrounding landscape. The research employs ArcGIS tools, multi-criteria evaluation techniques and the Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) model to assess flood hazard zones. The key physical elements of slope, elevation, rainfall, drainage density, land use, and soil types have been integrated to identify areas vulnerable to flooding. Overlay analysis has been used to construct zones specifically designated for flood hazards. Additionally, pairwise comparison using Saaty’s scale was employed to calculate the Eigenvector More >
