| Popis: | Water is a most important natural resource and it occupies a very important role for the overall development of an area. The surface water bodies of the study area (i.e., Raniganj colliery area, West Bengal, India) are extracted from the satellite imagery. The drainage pattern of the study area also conforms to the dendritic pattern. The surface water body of the study area has been generated using the normalized difference water index (NDWI). The distribution of NDWI values is computed from the satellite imagery over the whole study area. Field water samples were collected from Damalia and Baktarnagar high school of Raniganj in Barddhaman district. Water has been collected as a field sample from mining area (abundant), and the samples are tested for the different parameters of the water. This cadastral-level sample data is very much useful for the proper planning and monitoring of the changes in the different environmental parameters at cadastral level that will include the mining/industrial zones within the study area and at the same time these digital databases would be used for sustainable environmental planning. Finally, the surface water map could be used for various purposes like location of well/tube well and irrigation by pump/deep tube well for sustainable agricultural purpose in cadastral/village label and management of subsurface water in this area for future prospect. |
