Geoinformatics for Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering Syllabus for B.Tech 7th sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
Geoinformatics for Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering B.Tech (R13) seventhsem is as follows
OBJECTIVES:
To impart knowledge in various applications of hydrology and water resources using Geomatic technology.
UNIT I : HYDROLOGIC COMPONENTS [9 hours]
Hydrologic cycle – estimation of various components – clouds – rainfall – runoff – evaporation – transpiration – evapo-transpiration – interception – depression storage – Spectral properties of water.
UNIT II :SURFACE WATER MODELLING [9 hours]
Drainage basin – Delineation and codification of watershed – Morphometric analysis – Hydrological Modelling – Rainfall – runoff modelling – USDA-SCS-CN Method – Urban Hydrology – LiDAR Mapping for Urban area – Impact of Climate change on Hydrological modeling – Water quality mapping and monitoring – Correlation model for pollution detection.
UNIT III : RISK AND DAMAGE ASSESSMENT [9 hours]
Mapping of snow covered area – Snow melt runoff – glacier runoff modelling – flood forecasting – Flood Risk Zoning – Flood damage assessment – Flood Modelling – Early warning system for flood mitigation – drought – types – assessment of droughts and mitigation – water harvesting structures
[TOTAL : 45 PERIODS]
OUTCOMES: At the end of the course the student will be able to understand
- The components of hydrologic system and their measurement through remote sensing systems
- The techniques useful for assessment of Risk and Damage due to water related disasters using remote sensing and GIS
- The modeling tools for ground water flow modeling
- Assess the irrigation water requirement and watershed management through intervention of remote sensing and GIS tools
