Application of Geographical Information system (GIS) in urban water of Amol in Iran at Time of Natural Disaster
For the management of urban disaster risk, periodic updating of
geo- databases of urban water is crucial, particularly in
developing countries where urbanisation rates are very high.
However, collecting information on the characteristics of
buildings and lifelines through full ground surveys can be very
costly and time-consuming. this article has done operationally in
Amol city which is located in Mazandaran Province of Iran and it
tries to represent by using rules and data of collected from
different maps, urban designing and capabilities of Geographical
Information system (GIS) in urban water management at the time
of natural disasters. Structure of this article is like that in first we
established a comprehensive data base related to water utilities
by collecting, entering, saving and data management, then by
modeling water utilities we had practically considered its
operational aspects related to water utilities problems in urban
regions.
