Abstract :

Remote sensing can play useful role in harnessing available water resources wealth. Remote Sensing and GIS techniques become potential and indispensable tools for solving many problems of water resources in civil engineering. Remote sensing observations provides data on earth’s resources in a spatial format, GIS co–relates different kinds of spatial data and their attribute data, so as to use them in various fields of water resources engineering. Different themes namely, terrain, geology, hydrology, drainage, land use and so on can be extracted from remote sensing data. All the above thematic information along with their attributes can be integrated to solve many problems of water resources engineering. Uses of remote sensing and GIS are Watershed Management, Irrigation management, Drought management, Soil moisture estimation, Reservoir sedimentation, Flood monitoring. This paper mainly focuses on the relevance of RS & GIS on the above mentioned fields.
