Abstract
The recent spurt in agricultural production, industrial and urban development by uneven distribution of rainfall in recent time, failure of monsoons has admired the irrecoverable stress on groundwater in the hard rock regions. Osmanbad district is having serious water scarity due to last several draughts as well as sometimes extensive flooding conditions due to unexpected dense rainfallthroughout the study region, this maybe due to climate change.Studies based on geomorphological analysis have shown vital results to enhance the new sites for water conservation both in surfacial and sub-surfacial form. The stream density, stream frequency and the bifurcation ratio has enhanced to go for detailing of the geomorphological studies. The investigated sites were not only referred with the geomorphological studies, but a prioritization of the sub-watersheds were determined. Groundwater prospects of the present study area depend on its geological structures, geomorphic features and their hydrological characters. Topographical map has been used to prepare the required thematic maps like geology, geomorphology, surface water bodies and drainage etc., eighteen geomorphic units have been derived from the integrated maps. Based on which the prioritization of the regions based on the classification of the drainage system has been made. In the present investigations of Osmanabad basin are coupled with the geo-spatial techniques with green potential zones of watershed for environmental management too. A huge data with individual unbiased are used for assigning the Weighted Sum Analysis (WSA) method was used to identify the critical, prioritized and green potential watershed in the Osmanabad basin.
