Site-Suitability Analysis for the Identification of Potential Sites to Construct Rain Water Harvesting Systems
Abstract
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems are a boon to the modern scientific domain as it provides a strong base for understanding the Earth's behavior in so many ways and help us to understand its response to certain conditions. With the exploitation of these two modules important spatial decisions can be made at ease with quite a satisfactory accuracy level. With the context of global warming water scarcity is being identified as sector demanding strategical implementation of plans for sustainable development. To ensure water supply water conservation is required. Runoff harvesting could be an option to that if the area under plan experience substantial runoff in a year. Lower Kasai Keleghai interfluve situated in West Bengal falls under monsoonal climatic regime. GIS based site-suitability analysis was adopted here based on LULC and Curve Number to identify potential zones for runoff harvesting. The result shows that 18.71% of the interfluve is suitable for providing a base for runoff harvesting.
