Abstract

A watershed is a territory from which many rivers and streams drain into a common reservoir. The first step in reaping the benefits of watersheds is identifying them and determining how much water they supply. Important watershed parameters may be defined and calculated using a Geographic Information System (GIS). The city of Chittoor in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh is being investigated here. The Google Earth engine is used to create a LULC map (land use land cover), and USGS Earth Explorer is used to gather DEM data to define watersheds to better understand the study area’s landscape. Watershed boundaries and morphometric parameters are presented in the current study.
