Governance of Basin Hydrology using GIS and RS: A Case Study of Dangri River Basins in India

Published 2021-06-30

Abstract

In last decades the contention of establishing more economically powerful between many developing and the developed countries is increasing at a fast pace. This rivalry is further leading to unplanned growth of population, industrialization and finally stressing all the natural resources. Water resource is also one of them and to protect it, the governance of all the water resources within a basin is of utmost necessary to meet the various water demands and to maintain a balance of watercycle within the basin. The various recent and precious spatial statistics of natural resources and earth’s surface features are provided by remote sensing. Geological Information System (GIS) with its ability of coordination and investigation of spatial, aspatial, multifaceted data got in a wide assortment of arrangements both from remote sensing and other customary sources has end up being a successful instrument in governing the basin hydrology. In this context the present study analyzes a major influent of the Ghaggar River in Haryana state. Through this study Water Management Plan (HARSAK, 1997) under two sub-basins MB2V and MB2W from the Dangri stream area has been studied using the GIS and RS techniques.
