Abstract: | Visual interpretation of IRS ID LISS-III fused with PAN data (1:12,500 scale) ofPatloinala micro-watershed of Puruliya district, West Bengal was carried out for delineating the physiographic units based on the variations
in image characteristics. The major physiographic units identified were upland(Tanr), medium land(Baid), and low land(Bahal andKanali). The satellite remote sensing data coupled with ground truth were translated in terms of soils using composite interpretation
map as base. The abstraction level attained was phases of soil series based on Soil Taxonomy. On the basis of physiographic
variation and soil or soil site characteristics such as texture, depth, slope, erosion etc. the problem areas were identified
and land use plan has been suggested for the overall development of the micro-watershed. |
