Application of GIS and RS for Morphometric and Hypsometric Analysis of Pargaon Watershed: A Case Study
This study for the Pargaon watershed, a study area in the western portion of Maharashtra state with significant socio-economic implications, reports a morphometric analysis to comprehend the hydrological process and a hypsometric analysis for the catchment to expose the stages of geomorphic evolution. The study’s approach included the use of digitized toposheets, georeferencing, and ArcGIS software. Knowing the type of the watershed yields morphometric parameters such as basin, areal, linear, shape, and landscapes. The highest stream order obtained was eighth order, the watershed has a dendritic drainage pattern, and the mean bifurcation ratio is 4.39, according to the analysis. The drainage density of 2.03 km2/ km2 indicates a low drainage density, categorizing the research area as coarse drainage texture. The hypsometric integral is 0.42, and the hypsometric curve is concave and convex, indicating that the Paragon watershed is fully developed.
