3.2.1. Elevation

Elevation is a parameter of grea<sup>t</sup> significance for delineating flood hazards and mapping flood zones. During the monsoon, the downstream area generates ideal flood conditions due to sedimentation and surge in river flow. Understanding elevation variation is critical for river basin generation and the propagation of flood waters. In this study, FABDEM (Forest and Building removed Copernicus DEM) data with a spatial resolution of 30 m is used.
