<str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> generati<strong>on</strong> of climatological and weather informati<strong>on</strong> that can be applied in advising<br />

the planners and decisi<strong>on</strong> makers mostly involves data analysis, after which most appropriate<br />

inferencing can be d<strong>on</strong>e.This paper will look at the ten day rainfall analysis for Uganda for the<br />

past ten years, using accumulated decadal rainfall data.Data from a total of 16 active synoptic<br />

stati<strong>on</strong>s across the country, has been analysed whereby accumulated ten day rainfall graphs<br />

have been generated.<br />

In the existing study, we have used the precipitati<strong>on</strong> records of synoptic stati<strong>on</strong>s of Iran<br />

for a l<strong>on</strong>g term period, after retrieving the data and applying homogenity tests.Using the SIAP<br />

equati<strong>on</strong>, we have drawn z<strong>on</strong>ing map of IRAN based <strong>on</strong> standardized values and the<br />

coefficient of variati<strong>on</strong> of precipitati<strong>on</strong> have been studied and finally the coefficients of variati<strong>on</strong><br />

map of Iran has beenstudied and finally the coefficients of variati<strong>on</strong> map of Iran has been<br />

prepared.<br />

According to the results obtained, in the years 1966 and 1973 all over Iran has<br />

experienced droughts and since 1995 until 2001 a very l<strong>on</strong>g desiccati<strong>on</strong> in most parts of Iran<br />

has dominated.<br />

Key words:Z<strong>on</strong>ing, Drought,coefficient of variati<strong>on</strong>,Siap<br />
