Abstract
This study has presented a new application of space technology in combination with the geo-information system. It has resulted in a number of new findings on the mechanism of floods and torrents that occur in Jeddah and the surrounding area. Thus, maps of flood-prone areas were obtained and appropriate flood controls were proposed. It is hoped that the study will provide useful information for the consideration of decision makers, experts, stakeholders and even the inhabitants themselves to better understand the natural and anthropogenic aspects which act on the occurrence of floods and torrents. It is recommended that similar studies be applied to many other regions of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
