Abstract
Soil and water are the basic essentials for survival of life on the earth. The prosperity of nation depends on the quality of its land resources. Remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) have become easier and efficient tools in the watershed development projects. Therefore, this attempt was made for digital delineation and analysis of morphometric characteristics for Kudavale micro-watershed using remote sensing and GIS. The watershed was delineated using digital elevation model in ArcGIS10.2. Digital Elevation Model (DEM) has been collected from ISRO’s geoportal Bhuvan captured by Cartosat-1 satellite having spatial resolution of 2.5m. The analysis of morphometric characteristics showed that there were 43 streams present in watershed having fourth order as the highest stream order. The values of form factor, elongation ratio and circulation ratio were found 0.42, 0.73 and 0.51 respectively. From the analysis, it is found that the shape of Kudavale watershed is ‘+’ type with N-S length slightly higher than E-W length. Also, watershed has dendritic type of drainage pattern with drainage density 2.17 km/km2, which indicates gentle to steep slope terrain, medium dense vegetation, and less permeable with medium precipitation.
