{"title":"GIS-based Flood Risk Assessment in the Urban Catchment of Uyo Metropolis, Nigeria","authors":"Dickson Kinikawo Nsiegbe, V. Weli, G. O.

The goal of this research is to calculate the flood risk assessment of a selected urban catchment in the Nigerian metropolis of Uyo. Secondary data were obtained from Landsat images of the study area using a correlational research design. Using supervised categorization of landuse in the area, the watershed pattern, landuse/landcover, and inundation level were determined using the area's Digital Elevation Model. The study also used a GIS-assisted computer simulation of storm water created by enhanced DEM to assess storm water level and inundation as a function of landuse/landcover change. Storm water generation assessment, inundation modeling, assessment of land cover and level of inundation, and evaluation of flash flood susceptibility using modeled inundation were among the hydrological models and techniques used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that Uyo has a number of streams with varying flow lengths. Uyo has 21 sub-basins, according to the study. In uyo, the total runoff was greater (0.74) inches. In Uyo, the rate of change in catchment behavior, such as catchment precipitation, node flooding, and runoff, increased with the time of day, whereas the rate of change in runoff volume varied somewhat. The hydrograph was not wider because the sections of Uyo metropolitan that were prone to moderate and high floods were higher (78.03 percent ). Based on these findings, the study suggests that better city design is needed to control the impact of flooding in the study area. To prevent the loss of life and property, areas prone to moderate and high flood vulnerability should be closely monitored and secured.","PeriodicalId":56158,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Healthcare Information Systems and Informatics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85215597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Certainly, MANETs are networks that utilize communication peripatetic nodes such as; Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, laptops which enable wireless transmission across an area and forwarding data packets to the other nodes resulting in frequent change in topology. MANETs are exposed to several communication assaults such as active attack and passive attack. The active attack disrupts network operations while the passive attack obtains information without upsetting normal networks operation. Wormhole is a typical case of active attack. Indeed, an attacker receives packets at one end of the network, tunnels them to another end of the network, and then replays them into the networks from that point resulting in a collapse in communication across wireless setups. This research work simulates and models a typical wormhole attack in MANET using Network Simulator (NS-2.35) and Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). The End-2-End behavioural analysis of wormhole attacks on the transmitting networks layer of MANET was realized. To detect the level of wormhole attack in the network several parameters such as Packet Delivery Ratio, Packet Forwarding Probability and Packet Dropping Probability were considered by determining the degree of severity of wormhole attack which may upset the Quality of Service (QOS) delivery. The aim of this research paper is in the direction of Network security optimization.","PeriodicalId":56158,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Healthcare Information Systems and Informatics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89833774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
