Ft. For the identification of morphological features and analyzing their properties of the Meghadrigedda basin various GIS and image processing techniques have been adopted. The linear and aerial aspects of the basin were calculated and computed. It is 7th order drainage basin and drainage pattern is dendritic type. The results obtained from watershed delineation and prioritization has wider application in preservation of the watershed.</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords>GIS; Watershed; Delineation; Drainage Parameters; Preservation.</Keywords> <URLs> <Abstract>https://ijesm.co.in/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=4246&title=WATERSHED PRESERVATION AND CONTROL USING GIS</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References/> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
