This flood map predicts the likelihood of flash flooding at each cell location based on four variables: land cover type, slope, distance to roads, and distance to rivers. Areas around roads and rivers are at higher risk, while areas away from roads are relatively safe. To create a more detailed map, additional variables such as soil type and river characteristics could be considered. The impact of slope on flash flooding may be less significant than elevation.

A flow direction map was created which was used to determine flow accumulation in each cell. An accumulation threshold was then set to 1000 to determine which areas were actual streams. Finally a watershed layer was created using the stream data to determine where basin boundaries exist.
