  • Mapping Land Subsidence of Krishna – Godavari Basin Using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry Technique
    Mapping Land Subsidence of Krishna – Godavari Basin using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry Technique Lokhande Rohith Kumar, Divya Sekhar Vaka, Y. S. Rao Centre of Studies in Resources Engineering, IIT Bombay, Powai-400076, Mumbai, India Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] KEYWORDS: Interferometry, subsidence, PALSAR, oil and gas wells ABSTRACT SAR Interferometry (InSAR) is a technique by which a wide area can be mapped for surface deformation. The conventional InSAR technique has limitations due to baseline restriction, atmospheric phase delay and temporal decorrelation. Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) technique is an advanced InSAR technique, and it mitigates the atmospheric phase delay effect and geometric decorrelation to a large extent by utilizing a stack of interferograms and gives time series deformation with high accuracy. Extraction of oil and natural gas from underground deposits leads to land subsidence. The East coast of Andhra Pradesh (AP) state in Krishna-Godavari basin is most likely to be affected by this phenomena because of extraction of oil and natural gas from its underground reservoirs for the last two decades. In this paper, an attempt is made to know how the urban cities in this region are affected due to land subsidence using PSI technique. For this, two coastal test areas are selected and ALOS-1 PALSAR datasets from 2007 to 2011 comprising of 11 and 13 scenes are processed using PSI technique. Although the area predominantly agriculture, small villages, towns and cities provide adequate Persistent Scatterers (PS). From the results, land deformation rates of different cities in test area are observed.

The help of many Government officers is greatly appreciated. On the whole, I was impressed by their professionalism, commitment and concern. They gave me their valuable time; and most of them were extremely candid. Much that they told me was ‘off the record’. I have tried to protect their anonymity by normally not citing them by name in the report. There are far too many to individuals to mention them all.

  • 6. Water Quality ------61 6.1 Surface Water Quality Observations ------61 6.2 Ground Water Quality Observations ------62 7
    Version 2.0 Krishna Basin Preface Optimal management of water resources is the necessity of time in the wake of development and growing need of population of India. The National Water Policy of India (2002) recognizes that development and management of water resources need to be governed by national perspectives in order to develop and conserve the scarce water resources in an integrated and environmentally sound basis. The policy emphasizes the need for effective management of water resources by intensifying research efforts in use of remote sensing technology and developing an information system. In this reference a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on December 3, 2008 between the Central Water Commission (CWC) and National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to execute the project “Generation of Database and Implementation of Web enabled Water resources Information System in the Country” short named as India-WRIS WebGIS. India-WRIS WebGIS has been developed and is in public domain since December 2010 (www.india- wris.nrsc.gov.in). It provides a ‘Single Window solution’ for all water resources data and information in a standardized national GIS framework and allow users to search, access, visualize, understand and analyze comprehensive and contextual water resources data and information for planning, development and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Basin is recognized as the ideal and practical unit of water resources management because it allows the holistic understanding of upstream-downstream hydrological interactions and solutions for management for all competing sectors of water demand. The practice of basin planning has developed due to the changing demands on river systems and the changing conditions of rivers by human interventions.

    HISTORICAL TREATISE OF SHORE DYNAMICS AND SPIT GROWTH NEAR KAKINADA COAST, GODAVARI DELTA, ANDHRA PRADESH K.Mruthyunjaya Reddy*1 and B.L.Deekshatulu2 1Director General, A.P. State Remote Sensing Applications Centre (APSRAC), B-Block, 8th Floor, Swarnajayanthi Complex, Ameerpet, Hyderabad-500 038, India; Tel: +91-40-23755543. +91-9949626969 E-mail: [email protected] 2FNA, FIEEE (USA), FTWAS (Italy), Padmasri, Chairman, BOG NIT Warangal, Former Professor, IISC, Bangalore, Distinguished Scientist & Director NRSA, Director CSSTEAP (UN), Visiting Professor, University of Hyderabad 10-3-123/3, East Marredpally, Secunderabad-500 026, India E-mail: [email protected] KEY WORDS: Progradation, accretion, erosion, spit, shoreline ABSTRACT: India has 7517 km long coastline with major deltas on the east coast. Godavari delta is the 3rd largest, located in Andhra Pradesh, and it is familiar as rice bowl of the State. The presence of spit makes Kakinada a natural harbor. It is home for an anchorage port and a deep water port. Kakinada's deep-water port is the second largest in the state after Visakhapatnam port built in the year 1996.Hence its time sequential study is vital to understand the coastal processes and its environment. The study of multi-date remote sensing data and the historical maps revealed that during the period 1851-1893 the delta progradation is insignificant, but there was substantial growth from 1893-1957 to an extent of about 150 km2 at the rate of 1.66 km2 per year. For a period of 44 years i.e., from 1957-2001 the growth of the delta is marginal or almost stable.
