Abstract
CMRCET campus comprises about 10 of acres land, where water is the natural resource which is being always in high demands. If the demand is not met, then it will lead to water scarcity. Therefore, RWHS can be considered as a best solution for fighting against scarcity of water. Our present study deals with the identification of the study area boundary and marking it as a Polygon in GIS, Rooftops of various block entities, paths and pavements were digitized using the Polygon vector in GIS. GIS technique is employed for locating boundaries of the study area and for calculating the areas of various types of rooftops and paths. With the application of GIS, it is possible to assess the total potential of water that can be harvested. Potential of rainwater harvesting refers to the capacity of an individual catchment that harnesses the water falling on the catchment during a particular year considering all rainy days. This present study will enable us to identify the suitable type of water harvesting structure along with the number of structures required. Our aim is to maximize water storage and minimize the runoff through drains without making use of it. Thus, Rainwater Harvesting and Conservation aim at the optimum utilization of the rain water.
