The current study in this research focuses on the importance of the digital elevation model (DEM) and satellite images to evaluate and interpret the relative parameters of watersheds in Kannad taluka, Aurangabad district, India. Watersheds in the area were identified and calculated using the SRTM DEM through ARCGIS 10.8 software. Kannad shows a first to fourth-order drainage network which is of dendritic type, which indicates a sign of the structural lack of control and homogeneity of the watersheds in Kannad taluka. The basin’s mean bifurcation ratio is found to be 1.47 which indicates that the drainage network pattern is not much influenced by geological structures. Based on the hydrological assessment on the watershed scale, the present study reveals that the SRTM DEM is the most accurate application compared to other techniques. As visual or manual identification and evaluation are difficult and may not provide a holistic view of watersheds, modern tools of RS and GIS were used to study the watershed of Kannad taluka. There was lack of published reports on watersheds by using the RS and GIS and work undertaken. |
