1.1. Introduction Vamsadhara basin lies in Orissa and Andhra Pradesh States. It is bounded on the north by the Mahanadi basin, on the northeast by the Rushikulya basin, on the west by the Nagavali basin and on the east by the Bay of Bengal. The catchment area is mostly hilly. Since the surface is mostly covered with kankar and murum, the run -off is moderate in the basin. Vamsadhara is an important east flowing river between Mahanadi and Godavari. The river rises just south of the Belagad village in the undivided phulbani district of Orissa at an elevation of about 600m. The important between Orissa and Andhra Pradesh and 73 km is in Andhra Pradesh. The important tributaries of Vamsadhara are Chuvaldhua, Poladi, Gungudu, Sannanoi and Mahendratanaya, Bhangipedda, Peddadedda and Bellagedda. The catchment area of the Vamsadhara River is 10,515 is taken up for the examination of the problem. The river is prone to frequent floods. This is interstate drainage basin between Andhra Pradesh and Orissa. The river joints the sea at Kalingapatnam after traversing 230 kms in both the states which 8,611 km2 lies in Orissa State (1.178 km2 in Phulbani, 191 km2 in Kalahandi, 4,056 km2 in Koraput and 3,501 km2 in Ganjam districs ) and 1,904 km2 lies in Andhra Pradeh State (221 km2 in Vizianagaram and 1,683 km2 in Srikakulam districts).

Management of water resources in large rivers basins typically differs in important ways from management in smaller basins. While in smaller basins the focus of water resources management may be on project implementation, irrigation and drainage management, water use efficiency and flood operations; in larger basins, because of the greater complexity and competing interests, there is often a greater need for long-term strategic river basin planning across sectors and jurisdictions, and considering social, environmental, and economic outcomes. This puts a focus on sustainable development, including consumptive water use and non-consumptive water uses, such as inland navigation and hydropower. It also requires the consideration of hard or technical issues—data, modeling, infrastructure—as well as soft issues of governance, including legal frameworks, policies, institutions, and political economy. Rapidly evolving technologies could play a significant role in managing large basins. This Special Issue of Water traverses these hard and soft aspects of managing water resources in large river basins through a series of diverse case studies from across the globe that demonstrate recent advances in both technical and governance innovations in river basin management.

Geospatial technology is a combination of state-of-the-art remote sensing and technology for geographic information systems (GIS) and global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) for the mapping and monitoring of landscapes and environment. The main thrust of using geospatial technology is to understand the causes, mechanisms, and consequences of spatial heterogeneity, while its ultimate objective is to provide a scientific basis for developing and maintaining ecologically, economically, and socially sustainable landscapes. This book presents new research on the interdisciplinary applications of geospatial technology for identification, assessment, monitoring, and modelling issues related to landscape, natural resources, and environmental management. The book specifically focuses on the creation, collection, storage, processing, modelling, interpretation, display, and dissemination of spatio-temporal data, which help to resolve environmental management issues including ecosystem change, resource utilization, land use management, and environmental pollution. The positive environmental impacts of information technology advancements with regard to global environmental and climate change are also discussed. The book addresses the interests of a wide spectrum of readers who have a common interest in geospatial science, geology, water resource management, database management, planning and policy making, and resource management.
