The morphometric characteristics of the basin contain important information regarding its formation and development, as all hydrologic and geomorphic processes occur within the basin area. The quantitative analysis of morphometric techniques of the said basin is very significant in understanding the landform processes, estimation of run-off, flood discharge, ground water recharge, soil and water conservation and sustainable environmental management. For detailed study, different statistical techniques and Geographical Information System (GIS) has been applied to evaluate the linear, areal and relief aspects of the said basin. Different thematic maps i.e. drainage density, drainage frequency, stream ordering and other maps have been prepared by using GIS software.
