In order to identify the exact location of the exisiting embankments, the satellite imageries of the<br />

study area were analysed. The LISS-III <strong>and</strong> PAN imageries were procured from National Remote<br />

Sensing Agency, Hyderabad <strong>and</strong> interpreted with the help of Regional Remote Sensing Service<br />

Centre, Kharagpur. In the following pages, the False Colour Composite (FCC) images of the entire<br />

area are presented in small segments matching with the Survey of India Topo-sheet extents. The<br />

corresponding sheet numbers are written over every image for easy identification. Overlain on the<br />

FCC images are the existing embankments, marked with different colours, depending upon the<br />

corresponding widths. A second set of digitized figures are also presented, which also mark the<br />

locations where new embankments are proposed by the Irrigation <strong>and</strong> Waterways Department,<br />

Government of West Bengal.
