However, in certain area with changing water demand, there is a perceived sense of inadequate rainfall over the years and hence overall yield resulting of this precipitation. One such case is applicable for the upstream catchment (Upper Shimsha-1 watershed) of river Shimsha that originates in Tumkur district of Karnataka with changing agriculture practice and increase in population, water demand has increased that has often pushed for the need to draw water from other watersheds. Consequently, Tumkur district is fed with water drawn from river Hemavathy through human-made channels. Geographical Information System (GIS) is a known and effective tool in performing many operations like digitization, delineation of streams of a watershed and carry out a variety of spatial analysis. This tool can be efficiently used to carry out hydrological analysis and hence used for sustainable watershed management projects. Morphometric analysis is very essential and significant in all hydrological investigation for development and management of watershed. Quantitative morphometry has known to hold an important part in the hydrological processes. Watershed management is a term used to describe the process of implementing land use practices and water management practices to provide betterment in the quality of water and other natural resources within any watershed by properly utilizing the available areas of the land and also water bodies in a much profitable way. Hence from previous studies it is clear that the morphometric analysis based on GIS and remote sensing technique is very useful to understand the prevailing geo-hydrological characteristics and for watershed planning and management. Key words: GIS, Remote Sensing, Watershed, Morphometry, Watershed management. DEPT.

INTRODUCTION: Water is one of the very important resources for all the living things on the earth. Without water no living organisms exists on the earth as of the other planets of the Universe. Among whole water on the earth 96.5% is concentrated in the oceans is not useful for domestic and agriculture purpose and apart from this the remaining water exists in the form of River, lakes, glaciers, water vapors, soil moisture and ground water. The water stored underneath the earth surface in aquifers is referred as groundwater. In present days groundwater becomes major source for domestic and agricultural activities apart from the places with the availability of surface water such as rivers and lakes. Groundwater is the resource which is gathered in the porous underlined subsurface rocks. In the hard rocks such as Igneous and Metamorphic terrains the porosity permeability of the rocks only restricted to the structural features such as fractures, fissures, joints, lineaments and also weathering. So, the groundwater occurrence and movements are being subsurface phenomenon in identifying groundwater potential zones amongst any terrains like even hard rock extensively depends on Geology, Lineaments, geomorphology, slope, drainages, soil and land use/land cover. Out of all the various methods for identifications and creating maps of groundwater potential zones the geophysical and remote sensing methods are the popular leading methods. 1.1 About Shimsha river: The river Cauvery has been one of the major rivers of South India and Shimsha is a river which flows through the state of Karnataka, India. It is one among all the tributaries of river Cauvery. The river’s origination is in the southern parts of the Devarayanadurga hill in the Tumkur district of Karnataka and it flows for about 221km before joining the river Cauvery. For our case study we are considering only the upper portion of river Shimsha with definite boundary lines. The Shimsha has a number of small tributaries – Chikkahole, Hebbahalla, Kanihalla, Kanva, Mullahalla, and Veeravaishnavi. However, the riverbed was dry for three years until the monsoon of 2013, when the abundant rain in the catchment areas allowed the river to flow again. 1.2 Study area: DEPT. OF CIVIL ENGINEERING NHCE, BENGALURU PAGE 9 of 52 MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF UPPER SHIMSHA 1 WATERSHED USING GIS AND RS TECHNIQUES B-35 The upper Shimsha-1 watershed (Map. 1), which is a tributary of Cauvery river located in the Tumkur district of Karnataka state, covering an area of 1220.77km2. It extends from 130 8’ 10”N to 130 33’ 9” N latitude and 760 46’ 43” E to 770 16’ 33” E longitude. This watershed covers major parts of Tumkur and Gubbi taluks of Tumkur district covers in the SOI toposheets numbers 57C/15, 57C/16, 57G/02, 57G/03 and 57G/04 of scale 1:50,000. It consists of nearly 23 sub-watersheds (Map-2) and 49 mini-watersheds.(See Table 1).
