These are commonly used for bathing and washing, fisheries and aquaculture, irrigation, cattle feeding and duck rising etc. In spite of the importance these to the local economy there is no up to date inventory. The present study is concerned with the distribution pattern of small water bodies and monitoring its characteristics. From the study it is found spatial distribution and changing pattern of small water bodies over the years and these changes have happened mostly in the recent decades.
