Abstract The modern space technology of satellite remote sensing has been recognised in India as a useful tool for quick information gathering in many fields of resources management. Significant work has been carried out in hydrology and water resources management related problems using the remote sensing data from Landsat satellites, aircraft remote sensing and Indian experimental remote sensing satellites Bhaskara I & II. In particular it has been found useful in surface water resources and flood-plain mapping, monitoring of sediment and water pollution, water management in command areas and ground water targeting. Significant results of the work carried out are presented. A brief description of proposed programme using Indian Remote Sensing Satellite to be launched in 1986 is also described.
