Using geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing integration to determine runoff\ncaused due to rainfall from watershed has performed increasingly attention in recent years. This study\nwas conducted in the Khartoum State. Curve Number (CN) method was applied for estimating the runoff\ndepth in the watershed. Hydrologic soil group and land use maps were generated in GIS Environment.\nHydrologic soil groups and land use maps were used to generate the CN map. Soil Conservation\nServices-Curve number (SCS-CN) method was followed to estimate runoff for the watershed. It was\nfound that the model can predict runoff reasonably well. It could be concluded that the SCS-CN method\ncan be applied to predict runoff volumes for planning of various conservation measures and for other\nwater resources applications.
