Abstract
The present study is a reasonable step on quantitative approaches of water management and advancement of groundwater potential for watershed development of the Ukhma River Basin with the help of remote sensing and GIS techniques. The Ukhma River is one of the significant NW (north-west) flowing tributaries of the Tons River in Central India occupying a 745 sq km area within the Kaimur and Rewa Group of rocks in the Son valley sector. It originates from Ledari Village and joins the Tons River near Deokhar village, Satna District, Madhya Pradesh, Central India. In the present study variations in NDVI and NDWI of the Ukhma River Basin has been measured significantly from 2006-2019. The NDVI and NDWI provide turbidity estimations of the basin's vegetation cover and water resources. The change in NDVI and NDWI detection from 2006-2019 indicates that the area susceptible to erosivity increases the surface runoff reduces the infiltration rate.
