A GIS-based approach in drainage morphometric analysis of Kanhar River Basin, India [1]

The study indicates that analysis of morphometric parameters with the help of geographic information system (GIS) would prove a viable method of characterizing
the hydrological response behaviour of the watershed. It is also well observed that remote sensing satellite data is emerging as the most effective, time saving and accurate
technique for morphometric analysis of a basin.
