GIS BASED LAND USE/LAND COVER CHANGE ANALYSIS AND FLOOD VULNERABILITY STUDY USING HIGH RESOLUTION SATELLITE DATA IN THE DAKHIN BHOLA GAON PANCHAYAT, RANI BLOCK, KAMRUP, ASSAM - Vol, 39(3), July - Roorkee Indian Water Resources Society - 18-25p

Dakhin- Bhola Gaon Panchayat (DBGP), Rani Block in Kamrup district of Assam is located in the peri which is undergoing haphazard urbanisation and rapid population growth thus putting lot of pressure in the DBGP area impactin ecology, environment and land use pattern. A GIS based study was carried out in the DBGP area to analyse the impact of urban densification in the Guwahati metro city on the peri 20,000. Land use land cover change analysis through geo year 2001 to 2018 following gradual decrease in forest and agriculture land by 5.7% and 0.89% respectively. The DB affected by floods and flash floods primarily affecting the agricultural lands, built paper an attempt has been made to analyse the spatio various development. The study also focused on the need to restrict further unplanned urbanisation, adequate regulation on en forest area, appropriate mitigation for the blockage of natural drainage/str floods
