ResumoThe present study area is part of Arkavathi river basin.Geo-morphological study has been carried out to understand the geo-hydrological conditions of the Yelahanka watershed.Remote sensing and Geographic information system was used for the assessment of linear, aerial and relief of the study area.Different quantitative morphological parameters like number of streams, stream frequency, stream length, bifurcation ratio etc., of the watershed reflect its hydro-geological behavior and useful when quantified in evaluating geohydrological reponse of the study area.The Yelahanka watershed obeys the Hortons law of relating linear and aerial aspects.GIS study has revealed the relationship between lithology, structure and morphological characters of the watershed.
