Soil erosion is complex phenomenon based on various factors like rainfall erosivity, soil erodibility, slope, land use, and conservation measures. Spatial and quantitative data of specific region helps to reduce the soil erosion and decide the suitable conservation measures. Identification of the soil erosion affected regions helps for deciding conservation measure to particular region without apply it to all region which reduce the cost for planning and construction of various measures and structures. In present study, RS and GIS technique were used for estimation of soil loss using Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), for estimation of Runoff using Curve Number method and Land Use and Land Cover (LULC).
