Abstract

Feasibility studies of the big projects playing an important role in the economy of the countries , as it helps in reviewing the strengths , weakness ,opportunities , and threats that effects those projects . In the water sector , the main focus developing countries nowadays is to start study and develop a long-term plan to develop a strategy for the best utilization  of the land and water resources . Under this plan , managing water projects is the lack of capacity and information to start a feasibility study of these projects , thus data collection from the project sites is needed the present research paper presents the use of recent technology of data collection and analysis for constructing a multi-purpose dam in the basin of sue River , South Sudan. Feasibility study for constructing this dam requires huge amount of data and information about the site. bathymetric and topographic survey , remote sensing (RS) , digital elevation mode (DEM) AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS) was integrated in order to collect the required information in a suitable time with accepted accuracy.
