Author(s): Madhukar Patel¬¬¬ and Dhiraj Khalkho
Abstract: The research study was undertaken to generate various thematic maps for Dhangaon micro watershed of Bemetara district. The base maps such as watershed boundary, drainage network were prepared with the help of Survey of India topographical map. The satellite data of IRS –P6 LISS-IV of 10th October 2014 of the study area were used for generating various thematic maps such as land use/land cover, soil, hydro geomorphology and slope map. Total 15 ha comprising of 28 farm fields of current fallow under Bhata farming situation can be brought under cultivation, total 60 ha comprising of 250 farm fields of current fallow under Matasi farming situation can be brought under cultivation, total 40 ha comprising of 112 farm fields of current fallow under Dorsa farming situation can be brought under cultivation due to its good soil health, and total 30 ha of barren land comprising of 80 field can be brought under cultivation.
