Antalya province, the study area, is located in the south of Türkiye, and it is one of the regions where flood disasters frequently occur, particularly due to excessive precipitation in the autumn and winter months. Therefore, it is extremely important to carry out the necessary engineering studies. Deluges and floods damage buildings, agricultural and residential areas, human life, and social and economic activities in the vicinity according to their flow rate. The study aims to evaluate the general geological structure of the region considering the reclamation of Ulupinar Stream in the Kemer district of Antalya, to determine a rock pit where resistant and impermeable rock material can be obtained to use in the construction of the masonry stone wall during the reclamation work, and also offer a reference study for future studies. The geological structure of the region was interpreted by using the general geological maps and studies conducted in the study area. The general geological map of the study area was edited and a generalized stratigraphic section was generated using geographical information system (GIS) methods and software. According to the results of the assessment of the studies and geological data on the flood control of Ulupinar Stream, which is one of the regions posing flood risk, the region was found to be a susceptible environment for flood considering the determining criteria such as the location of the basin and the average rainfall, and the reclamation of the stream has been suggested as part of the flood prevention plan. A rock pit where rock material can be obtained for constructing the masonry stone wall has been found 11 km from the region. The material in the rock pit is at a shallow depth and suitable for mining. All scientific studies related to the rock material and the rock pit determined in the study should be carried out before using the rock.
