Abstract
The quality of river water has been an important issue, due to its significant important function to the human being. In Asia, Malaysia is considered as one of the most speedily urbanizing countries and it’s facing huge environmental challenges. An increased pressure on urban areas has been generated by rapid manufacturing especially in the Penchala River Basin. Penchala River originates from Kiara Hill and passes through several important townships as it flows through residential and industrial areas before meeting with Klang River. Although the river is relatively short, with an approximately 12 km in length with a catchment area of 28 kilometer square, this catchment is noted to be under environmental stress emanating from storm water pollution, solid waste, sedimentation and micro-pollutant. To study the water pollution issue, it is always best if it is tied up with the geographic information system. The objective of this study is to use the GIS for preparing and organizing the geometric data to satisfy the water quality model requirements. As a result of this study, a digital map for Penchala River has been created.
