The Geographical Information Systems technology is used in many fields where the spatial information is very important and relevant, that means in all fields that use a system for saving, analyzing and representing the data which are processed. The aim of this paper is using modern technology for monitoring the environment. Geographical Information System together with remote sensing have a very important role in decision process regarding the environment. Integration of remote sensing images in a Geographical Information System which enables complex spatial analysis is a useful and modern solution for environmental management and decision-making process. Satellite images contain various information that can support environmental monitoring, images that can be analyzed and interpreted in various ways by using the Geographical Information System tools.

In this study, hypsometric curve (HC) and hypsometric integral (HI) of Chaukhutia, Bino, Naula and Gagas watersheds located in upper Ramganga River basin, Uttarakhand State, India, was done using Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographical Information System (GIS). The results of analysis revealed that the HI = 0.398, 0.345, 0.372 and 0.319 for Chaukhutia, Bino, Naula and Gagas watersheds, respectively. Based on HC two geological stages of erosion cycle i.e. monadnock and mature were identified in the study area. Therefore, the findings of this research could be useful for planning and constructing soil and water conservation structures at appropriate locations in these watersheds.
