Abstract:
Watershed is made-up of components like soil, water and vegetative cover including trees, crops, grasses and legumes. The integrated development of a watershed incorporates harnessing of these vital resources of nature. The comprehension includes various types of data collection i.e. rainfall, runoff, land use, drainage soil type agricultural and socio-economic and geological The procedure of spatial and non spatial data collection, storage, analysis and slides view needs a collective, memorizable and effective system.
Watershed Modeling System (WMS) is computer oriented, and well designed system for such data 'feedback.. Basic data structures used in Watershed Modeling Systems (GiS vector data or feature objects. DEMs, and TINS) helps in how watersheds can be delineated to set up hydrologic models from them. Under basics it covers supporting hydrologic calculations such as curve number generation from land use and soil data layers and time of concentration (or lag time) computations from computed geometric values
Many watersheds become barren due to poor conservation and management of water resources and over exploitation of soil. Recharging of ground water and renewable of surface water resources are commonly used for integrated planning and
management of watersheds The thesis includes conservation, utilization and management of water resources in Churachandpur district of Manipur state in India to make hilly land cultivable fertile and useful to meet the food shortage and control of erosion ,land slides, and other natural land degraded phenomenon ....
