Evaluating and mapping of SCS Curve Numbers for Lokapavani catchment of Karnataka
Analysing data of Lokapavani catchment characteristics that affect direct runoff, such as soil type, land cover and rainfall. Posted on 22 Dec, 2010 09:58 PM

This study by Geospatial World attempts to collect and analyse data concerning the catchment characteristics that affect direct runoff such as soil type, land cover and rainfall for the catchment of Lokapavani river in Karnataka using remote sensing and GIS techniques. An attempt has been made to determine the weighted average Curve Number (CN) for different land use, land cover and soil types in Lokapavani catchment in order to estimate the runoff.
