Abstract: For Baku city (capital of Azerbaijan) with a population of some 1. 9 million an enormous wastewaters are evident in the discrepancy between the volume potentially available and the actual quautity of water received by users. In Apsheron peninsula as the larger urban area one third of the population is not connected to a municipal wastewater system. All of the Greater Baku urban centers have inadequate sewerage and lack treatment facilities. Large number of different sewerage systems together with new settlement are creating a difficulties for effective monitoring of wastewater collection and treatment. The study area, Apsheron peninsula, consists of wastewater connected and nonconnected to the collection system, treated or untreated primarily to the Caspian Sea, inter-connections with the stormwater drainage system, pass directly to storage Bulbul and Gunli Gel lakes. Due to this complexity it is unable to study individual discharge points and some parameters such us capacity, leakage and infiltration, pumped flows, wastewater loads, within short period without to use modelling methods. In this context relevant wastewater features have been hydraulic analysed to extract spatial parameters related wastewater production and the extrated parameters are used input for GIS to obtain different wastewater needs.
