As this is a complex phenomenon, there is need for a reliable Information System/Decision Support System (DSS). Watershed Management Information System (WATMIS) is a viable and generic toolkit for integrated watershed planning and management of its natural resources using multiple technologies like Geographical Information System (GIS), Remote Sensing (RS), Global Positioning System (GPS), hydrological modelling and soft computing tools. In this system, an attempt has been made to integrate dimensions in Agriculture–Water–Soil–Climate continuum for sustainable management of land and water resources judiciously. The application of WATMIS will be useful to various stakeholders such as agriculturists, rural extension community and water resources managers for better decision making.
