Torrential Flood Hazards Assessment, Management, And Mitigation, In Wadi Aday, Muscat Area, Sultanate Of Oman, A GIS and RS Approachįlash flood hazard of Wadi Aday threaten human activities in an important urban area of Muscat City, the capital of Sultanate of Oman. The paper discusses also the current urban problems resulting from this rapid growth as well as its future spatial trends A combination of human and physical factors controlled this rapid growth.
The results show that the total urban expansion reached more than 650% between 19, with an annual growth rate of approximately 20%. The outcome of this exercise was the design of six urban growth maps covering the years 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990, 20. Based on the detailed datasets and knowledge of historical land use maps attempts were made to simulate future growth patterns of the city. This research aims to measure and to model the urban expansion of Muscat Governorate using the combined technologies of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS). In order to determine the urban growth between 19, multi data sources and techniques have been used under a GIS environment. So, the process of the growth, the controlling factors and the side problems which become apparent need to be highlighted. The urban of Muscat expanded on the area rapidly. Muscat Governorate is the main governorate in the Sultanate of Oman and at the same time, it is the capital of the country.
