- Abstract
Palembang City is one of the largest and most populous cities on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. The topography of the Palembang City area is mostly lowland, which is one of the causes of frequent flooding, especially when rainfall is high, so the potential for hydrometeorological disasters in the Palembang City area cannot be avoided. In this research, the distribution of floods per sub-district in Palembang City was identified as an effort to anticipate and minimize risks and losses resulting from flood disasters. Flood distribution points are mapped using GIS. From the map of the distribution of flood points, there are 196 flood inundation points with variations in height of 5–50 cm totaling 51 points, 20–50 cm totaling 93 points, and more than 50 cm totaling 52 points spread across all sub-districts in Palembang City. Flood points occur with quite high rainfall intensity, on average reaching 10–15 times a year with a frequent frequency category (˃ 5 a year), an average height of 20–50 cm, and a receding duration for the flood point of 2–4 hours or even more at several points in the sub-districts in Palembang City.
