Abstract: Water consumption statistics and urban population forecasts show that water consumption in the capital has increased dramatically now and in the future. The objective of this study was to study water demand or water consumption from weather variables and land development. To study impacts of weather variables on urban water demand at multiple temporal scales, temperature and rainfall data were used as study variables. The results of the study found that temperature and rainfall influence the urban water demand in the daily, monthly and seasonal time scales. An increase in 1°c of the temperature caused an increase in 1.52%, 1.87% and 2.38% of the water demands in the cases of the daily, monthly and seasonal time scales, respectively. An increase in 10 mm/day of the rainfall caused a decrease of 0.017%, 0.189% and 0.291% of the water demands in the cases of the daily, monthly and seasonal time scales, respectively. Using t stat and P-value, temperature is a more significant variable than rainfall, especially in the daily time scale. The weather effect to water demand with different time scales provides a better water demand prediction for the short-term, medium-term and long-term planning and management. To study the linking of water consumption with urban land development, data on customer types, transportation routes and land prices were studied, using data analysis and spatial analysis methods. The results of the study found that water consumption for “House/ Residence” is higher than water consumption for other type. All transport routes have water account density and water consumption rates are clearly higher than average. MWA is a trend of higher water consumption in residential and business areas with high land prices. The highest total water consumption was in the range of land prices of 1,000-2,500 baht in 2013. There is a tendency to increase in volume during the higher land prices in all provinces in 2019. Correlations value between water consumption and land price showed that water consumption was most correlated in Nonthaburi, Samut Prakan and Bangkok provinces, respectively. Correlation values were high on the APL, BTS, MRT, Express Way and Main Road routes respectively.
