Abstract

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are considered as a vast and powerful support tool for urban planning. In this sense, the susceptibility analysis of the flooding areas through SIG represents a highly important information for the government to support the zoning process, delimitation of risk areas and the allocation of resources with corrective and preventive purposes. This study aimed at determining areas susceptible to flooding in the Hydrographic Unit of Riacho Fundo.
