This tool can be efficiently used to carry out hydrological analysis and hence used for sustainable watershed management projects. In the process, the watershed of River Shimsha was delineated and discharge estimation was carried out using toposheets from Survey of India (Scale 1:50,000) and satellite based remote sensing digital elevation model (DEM). GIS tool (QGIS) was used to perform morphometric analysis for the above to derive stream characteristics and stream orders. Using Strange’s table, the yield of runoff from the catchment was estimated. The study revealed that a minimum of about 3.3 TMC or an average of 4.94 TMC of water can be accumulated annually out of the Shimsha drainage basin. This is a considerable quantity of water which calls for a sustainable water resource management. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The satisfaction accompanying the successful completion of any task would be incomplete without mention of the people who made it possible by their support and guidance which had been a constant source of encouragement that crowned our efforts with success. First and foremost, we have to thank our parents and family for their love and moral support throughout our lives. They have equipped us with everything we need. At the outset we express our most sincere thanks to our college, “CHANNABASAVESHWARA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY”, for providing us an opportunity to pursue the degree course in Civil Engineering thus help in shaping our carrier. We take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks and deep sense of gratitude to our beloved Director and Principal, Dr. Suresh Kumar D. S, for facilitating us with all the required infrastructure and resources during our stay with CIT. Our special gratitude to Dr. Sudhi Kumar G. S, Head of Dept., Civil Engineering., CIT, Gubbi for his constant guidance, encouragement, appreciation and cooperation throughout the course. We express our sincerest thanks to our project coordinator and guide, Mr. Manjunatha M Katti, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Civil Engineering CIT, Gubbi for his guidance and suggestions in carrying out this work. We would like to express grateful thanks to all the teaching staff of Department of Civil Engineering for the guidance and encouragement throughout the course. We also would like to extend our humble thanks to non-teaching staff of Department of Civil Engineering for their cooperation. Also we acknowledge, Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) for sponsoring this project and a platform to present this project in the 39th series of Student Project Programme (SPP).
