R. Balram, S. Ramanaiah, V. Harinath

Abstract: Geo environmental studies aim to predict geosystem response to various types of active interactions, it is an in-depth treatment of the relations between man and his geologic, geomorphic, physical and cultural environments. The study was conducted on the Ganganeru River basin. Remote Sensing and GIS techniques have been proved to be very efficient in delineation of resources information of the study area, i. e. geological, hydrological and physical-environmental aspects. IRS-P6-LISS-III geocoded, FCC, three seasons data has been used, the final output of the maps are generated, those are hydrogeomorphology, land use/land cover, slope and soil, on 150, 000 scale in the ARC-GIS environment, finally all thematic layers are integrated, analyzed and deliberate the geoenvironmental resources up-to-date positions. These studies are delivered more precise magnitudes in identification, spatial distribution and managing of geoenvironmental resources and its characteristics.

Keywords: Geo environments, Natural Resources, Spatial Distribution, Remote Sensing, GIS and Integration Study
