The Konasema area in Andhra Pradesh, India is prone to flooding due to coastal storms, storm surges, and river overflows. Flooding can be dangerous and pose a threat to human life and property. Floods are unpredictable and can happen suddenly, causing significant damage. Therefore, planning for flood management is essential for rescuing flood victims, resolving flood issues, and implementing preventive measures. In recent years, flooding has become more frequent in the Konaseema area, especially in the Godavari river's and near surrounding areas. Heavy floods from the Godavari River have been caused severe flooding in nearby konaseema villages. Flood management by water resource planners using GIS (Geographic Information System) developed land use and land cover maps, Flood zone maps in the study region. This study aims to analyse impact of Godavari River floods in Konaseema and East Godavari district Andhra Pradesh, India. DEM (Digital Elevation Model) is generated and prepared various thematic maps of Flood prone regions. The GIS generated flood impacted maps are analyzed and these maps will help to rescue the people from flood regions and migrate them in time to the safe zones.
