Management Of Rainwater And Its Conjuctive Use In Kolli Hill Area Using Remote Sensing

Abstract It is very effective in providing water supply, disaster prevention, alternative water source, and does not create water right conflicts. Over the years, rainwater harvesting has emerged from the past limited small and large farm pond use, and expanded to providing water supply for widespread agricultural, industrial, and residential uses. Establishment of rules and regulations along with incentive programs is being implemented step-by-step to further promote rainwater harvesting. This paper describes first the current status of water resources in India. followed by a narrative of rainwater harvesting development trend. It also introduces the current status of rainwater harvesting and its application results. Finally, the future prospect as well as the present incentive programs will be introduced.Conjunctive use therefore functions as a buffer for periods of water scarcity. The idea of this management approach is to use surface water when the water table is high and change to groundwater when the water table is low. This technique might be especially important as a buffer function for mitigating impacts of climate change, such as increased heat and drought.
