Abstract
The issue of climate changes causes damages from past two decades on environment. Increase in
temperature and its affect on hydrology and rainfall is proof around the world. Exchange in
precipitation pattern at once have an effect on water and catastrophe control. The aim of this
research is to determine the pattern of rainfall of Lahore using GIS applications. Rainfall records
for the duration of 20 years of monthly data 2000-2020 is provided by Meteorological
Department and TRMM data is also obtained to applied interpolation method. Krigning method
is used to map the precipitation of Lahore.
The Meteorological Department plays important role in monitoring the situation and issued the
assertion of modifications in climate and provide resources and gives warnings when situation
calls for. We evaluated the traits in Spatial Temporal models of annual and periodic rainfall of
Lahore in past 20 years (2000-2020) using precipitation data from the Meteorological
Department,using Giovanni Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite data, using
Pearson Correlation test which can discriminates Long-term potentiation from trends. The
outcome obtained that importance in tendencies acquire using Pearson test is increasing over past
years. The annual precipitation of Lahore is increasing over past 20 years
