Abstract:
For any type of Hydrological and meteorological study it is important that an optimum number of rain gauge are available in particular catchment area. Rainfall records constitute the most important and fundamental data required for hydrological investigations. To obtain reliable results, the various raingauges should be evenly and uniformly distributed within a given catchment. Moreover, the total number of raingauges installed within a given catchment area should neither too many as to be costly nor should be too less as to give unreliable results.
