floods widespread and frequent occurrence of this process in the Kura River
basin in Azerbaijan creates great threat for the local population, agriculture
and economy of the country. The core objective of the study was the analysis of
the flooding in 2010 based on hydrometeorological and satellite data. Assessment
of the hydrometeorological parameters that could cause flooding and tendency in

conducted. Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) multispectral satellite images reflecting
this event were used. The map of flooded areas was developed by the usage of
different tools and modules of ArcGIS 10.2.1
