Hello everyone,

As the Jalshakti ministry released its first waterbody census report (https://pib.gov.in/PressReleaseIframePage.aspx?PRID=1919482 ) last month, it will be very interesting to check on the locations of all the waterbodies surveyed during that massive exercise.

Can anyone guide me here, if that would be available soon in open from the side of ministry or if it already up in a webapp and can be obtained by that source.

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi, 

I would start by looking through the INDIA WRIS portal and tools (which is run by the NWIC). Look through the various tools and the geo-viewer. This is where the data would be were it publicly available.

Hi, 

So I've found this via Bhuvan https://bhuvan-wbis.nrsc.gov.in/# 

QGIS has access to Bhuvan data via WMS. I am not sure if the water bodies data is there as I have not yet looked but try that next ?
