Space technology plays a critical role in meeting the information requirements for efficient planning and management of the water resources systems.

Remote sensing data from space have demonstrated their operational capability

towards mapping and monitoring of many water resources projects. CARTOSAT-1, Resourcesat LISS-IV data provide suitable inputs and information for proposed new projects. ISRO has carried out a few studies to provide inputs for feasibility studies conducted for Interlinking of Rivers. There is a huge scope for such studies in the light of proposed projects under Interlinking of Rivers in India.

· Generation of close contour

information

· Land-use/Land-cover

Information

· Dam submergence area

analysis and identification of

irrigation commands

· High-resolution satellite data

· Design for canal alignments

· Maps generation at required

scales

MAJOR HIGHLIGHTS

MAJOR BENEFITS

· Information for decision

support for planning new

water resources projects

· Time saving in preparation of

feasibility reports

· Objective assessment of

resources

· Better understanding for

dealing R & R aspects
