Information technology is best thing to happen after industrial revolution for human society. IT has invaded our lives and taken over our work sphere to a great extent. Like in all the professional fields, IT has left its marks on the ways a civil engineer works.

The only hope of feeding India's future population of 1500 million lies in the sea food and horticulture. National Commission for Farms and Farmers under chairmanship of Prof. M. S. Swaminathan says that Indian farming has become profitless. The best way to make it profitable is through adding processing industry to agriculture, including horticulture, within natural units of watersheds.

Soil and water are the two important natural resources, which are the backbone of the Indian agriculture. The prime cause for the backwardness of the farmers is reduction in soil fertility and productivity, due to massive soil erosion. Most of the farmers are depending mainly on renewable natural resources for their livelihoods. The inhabitants of the foothill region of Northwest Himalayas have degraded lands, fragmented and small land holdings and are generally resource poor.

Soil fertility status of hilly microwater watershed in Shivalik hills, was assessed in relation to three locality factors, viz. altitude, slope and aspect. It was found that at higher altitude (440-450 m) of watershed, the soil fertility parameters were less and more in lower altitude (420-430m).

A pilot study was conducted to analyze the potential site suitability for constructing the groundwater recharge structures in Manesar Nala watershed, Gurgaon, Haryana using space technology integrated Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS).

For understantind the fluoride characterization, about 82 groundwater samples has been collected at different locations in the study area. Charnockite and biotite gneiss are the major lithounits of the area.
