Abstract

Floods are one of the most destructive natural disasters globally and are projected to increase in many regions of the world. One of the areas affected by the floods is Barito Kuala Regency in South Kalimantan. Flood hazard maps and flood inundation maps are one way to identify areas prone to flooding and to find out the area of inundated areas due to flooding. Methods of scoring and weighting the parameters that cause flood inundation to map an area that has the potential for flooding. Flood inundation maps can be generated using the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) method. The purpose of these two analyzes is to determine the distribution of flood hazard levels in Barito Kuala District, to evaluate flood-prone areas with flood-prone maps, and to determine the effectiveness of the two methods in identifying flood-prone areas and to determine the accuracy of the resulting flood inundation maps. Flood-prone areas were identified using the scoring method and parameter weighting to determine the distribution of flood vulnerability levels in Barito Kuala District. Parameters of flood vulnerability level used include land cover, slope, rainfall, drainage density, and soil type. Flood vulnerability level parameters were obtained from NDWI analysis on ArcGIS and ENVI. Image data during the dry season and rainy season are thresholded at <0.3 to eliminate data that is considered non-water resulting in flood inundation. The results of processing the level of flood hazard in Barito Kuala Regency are divided into 4 classes, namely the safe class with 0.5%, the less prone class is 10.11%, the moderate class is 89.37 and the vulnerable class is 0.00% of the area of Barito Kuala Regency with the majority of the areas in the moderate class. Savings District. The results of the analysis of the flood inundation map and the flood hazard map show that the moderate class of flood inundation is 72.06% of the total area of flood inundation
