Abstract
The study aims to using the surface water's drainage system maps which prepared from the aerial photographs to draw the gully erosion maps of Kand Anticline and its surrounding areas in northern Iraq. Gully erosion means and its intensity at different positions of study area were calculated. Its relation with the distributed geomorphological aspects in the study area to determine the effects and deformation of soil that affects an engineering structures such as Weirs and Check Dams. The analysis of gully erosion map which prepared by using computer program (Surfer 32) revealed that. The area has been affected by gully erosion in three zones, where as light gully zone formed 14.95% of the area, moderate gully zone formed 44.33% of the study area and the severe gully zone formed 40.72% of the total area. This show that the area interfere from moderate to severe gully erosion effects.
