  Recording of hydrological parameters of a flood with conventional means often fails due to an extreme event especially in developing countries like Bangladesh. Flood water causes a lot of property damage almost every year and it demands to be controlled for economic growth by water management. The objective of the study is to analyze the damages according to different land uses like urban area (Built-up) or agricultural lands, flood height and thus the percentages of loss in different land use in various corresponding year. Naogaon District has been chosen as the study area for this analysis. Remote Sensing data has been used in this context as remote sensing technology along with Geographic Information System (GIS) has become a key tool for flood monitoring in recent years. Satellite images which have been collected from Landsat 4-5 Thematic Mapper for the year 2004, 2007 and 2012 and L.. View More»
