The drainage basin parameters of the groundwater-fed Chhoti Gandak River originating in the terai area of the Ganga Plain were analyzed using topographical sheets, satellite data, and field documentation with emphasis to its implication for flood mitigation and recharging of groundwater. The analyses indicate dominance of first order streams, gentle slope gradient, low surface run-off, low sediment production, high infiltration rate, and low value of basin relief. The low water storage capacity, spreading of water and concentration of peak discharge in the distal part of the river basin explain that whenever precipitation is high in the catchment area there is flood in the distal part of the basin. The bifurcation ratio value (4.34) of this basin describes that the drainage is carved naturally by slope and local relief and not influenced by geological structures like lineaments and faults.
These parameters provide useful information for the prediction of basin behavior during prolonged heavy rainfall that generate floods and suggest that water resource management and developmental planning should be done with reference to the drainage basin parameters.

Storm Prediction Center Severe Weather (SVRGIS) Geographic Information System (GIS) applications are becoming increasingly popular in many organizations, including the federal government. Emergency operations have taken advantage of these capabilities. “GIS can be beneficial in many ways, but in the simplest of terms, it connects people to information through geography. Government can use GIS to store, manage, and access information about its facilities, people, and environment. It gives government officials a way to visualize data that helps them make decisions about project planning and economic development.- Possibilities of Using Neural Network for ECG Classification
