Abstract: Abstract: Floods have always been a major problem to the human race, as many settlements have grown up around rivers. The fastest growing city of India, Surat, is settled on the bank of river Tapi. Varekhadi, a group of 26 mini watersheds lead water into river Tapi and the flow takes a small time period to reach near Surat city. Due to which, the city gets flooded once in a 4 to 5 years and losses large amount of property and lives. Present work describes the flood potential of Varekhadi watershed group by application of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, using Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographical Information System (GIS). In order to minimize the effect of flood, in and around Surat city, feasible structural and non-structural measures are suggested.
