Integrated Watershed Management is indeed for these fast-growing cities and economic growth. Integrated water resource management is helped to support the developing nation in better development. The surface water resources are easy to access and it is encroached by settlements causing flood. This study is mainly aimed to study the morphometric characterization of the adyar watershed using remote sensing satellite images. The unsuitable new land use and land cover pattern may lead to poor maintenance of water bodies. The spectral indices maps such as NDVI, and NDWI has derived for land cover analysis. The land uses land cover pattern is analyzed using GEE. Three parameters of topographic nature, climate, and anthropogenic activities are input to access the water body conservation. According to the landscape and climate, land use practices should be designed and planned for balancing the ecology and environment in the region. The stakeholders and land users are insisted to obtain the suggestion for efficiently utilizing, monitoring, and conserving the resources. The different periods of remote sensing satellite images are used to analyze the land cover change pattern and its impact on water bodies. The unplanned water supply and mismanagement of available resources are the major causes for this failure it may be sorted out using this analysis. In the future, this paper helps the engineers, NGOs, and government land policies to ensure the proper infrastructure and suitable activity over the region.
