It is the largest district bounded by river Subansiri on the Northwest and by river Brahmaputra on the South, Southwest. Flood is the most devastating and frequent disaster in North-East India, resulting in loss of human life and damage of properties. The physical and socio-economic condition of the inhabitant of the river island is affected by such an event. Flood disasters have become a menace affecting the socio-economic, environmental, health and safety of the people. The current study introduces the methodology of flood hazard zonation using various tools and techniques. Monitoring and mapping out flood prone areas, assessing the extent of coverage is thus not in existence and this has been a problem for the government and the entire emergency agencies. However, this literature uses remote sensing and GIS as an emerging tool to detect the entire flood hazard\/prone areas to address and improve the efficiency of flood monitoring, and mapping. A SRTM Remote Sensing Data acquired through the SRTM website for making a flood hazard map with the help of GIS analysis tools and the acquired DEM which shows the topography and elevation of the state. This study provides an easy, simple and short technique for producing flood hazard zonation from various satellite data by using Geographic Information System (GIS) tools<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b85e817\" data-id=\"b85e817\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5df5352 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5df5352\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"725\" src=\"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-1024x725.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4715\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-1024x725.png 1024w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-1536x1087.png 1536w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/final_layout_new-2048x1449.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c4f7d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4c4f7d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-1024x724.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4714\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-1536x1086.png 1536w, https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/EIA-2048x1448.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flood Hazard Mapping using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques (A Case Study of Majuli River Island, Assam India) ABSTRACT : Majuli is a river island in the Brahmaputra River, Assam&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4714,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4155","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4155"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4155"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4155\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4745,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4155\/revisions\/4745"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4155"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4155"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gredfoundation.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4155"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
