River Chenab is formed by alluvial deposits, frequently facing riverbank and river channels dynamics due to floods. Present study is an attempt to compute the actual river bank dynamics within the Pakistan and India for a period of 2 years i.e. before and after flood of 2014. The entire course of Chenab River upstream of Jammu and Kashmir, Tandi to confluence with Indus River at Mithankot for a stretch of about 964 kilometer has been in to this study via an integrated approach of Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing. Entire mapping of riverbank and river channels in the study area is from Jayotipuram to Seetpur. After image processing it was found that the River Chenab in highly snaking river with several prominent sections where the river has been suffering immensely with the shifting and erosion characteristics. This shift in riverbank was 1669 m near city Gujrat and 2122 m after flood near Chiniot City in the mentioned period of study. These results reveals the dynamics of Chenab River and would be helpful to find its impact on anthropogenic activities.
