Flood is one of the major natural disasters which cause enormous casualties and damages particularly in urban areas. In urban areas, studies on food hazards have been accompanied by tensions for various reasons, including complexity of urban levels, diferent spatial modeling indices, lack of accurate hydrological data, and precise modeling of land surface simulations. This paper used a Constrained Delaunay Triangular Irregular Network to model fne urban surfaces (based on the detailed ground sampling data), and subsequently discusses fve indicators regarding the dangers of food, namely (1) elevation, (2) slope, (3) distance to discharge channels, (4) index of development and persistence of the drainage network (IDPR), and (5) infiltration rate. In the next step for food hazard mapping, the combination of geographical information systems and the entropy weight method as the multi-criteria decision analysis was used to combine the indicators. The proposed methodology was used for Hamadan city that is located in the central part of Hamadan Province in Iran where several foods occur annually. The food hazard mapping indicates that approximately 15.83% of the total study area is classifed as very highly hazardous, 31.72% as hazardous, 20.11% as moderate, 16.02% as minor, and 16.32% as the least hazardous. Finally, superimposition and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve methods were used to verify the accuracy of the obtained food hazard map. In terms of superimposition and ROC curve, the accuracy of the model was approximately 70% and 73%, respectively.
