Abstract

The study was undertaken with the use of remote sensing and GIS for delineating and planning. For land use/land cover (LULC) mapping, the standard procedure has been used and finally with the help of geospatial technology (ArcGIS10.2.2 software version) the mapping was done. The study area was classified into three land cover classes i.e., agriculture, built-up and water bodies. The majority of the area in the microwatershed was covered by agricultural land (83%) followed by water body (11%) and built up (6%) land. This classification and the land use map will be beneficial to the policy makers, farmers, NGO’s and field agricultural officers for planning and development of this watershed. Also rainwater harvesting structures can be provided after estimating the runoff potential and accordingly rainwater conservation structures can be planned for sustainable LULC management.
