Hazir S. Cadraku

Analysis and determination of morphometric parameters of a river basin is of great importance for planning and management. The paper examines the morphometric characteristics of the Blinaja River Basin, using materials, methods related to the use of the ArcMap program. In this case, different morphometric parameters were determined, including: the winding coefficient, the density of the river network, the asymmetry of the basin, the shape factor, etc. According to the size of the basin, they entered the small size < 250 km2, with an average meandering coefficient of 1.15, density of the river network which classifies it with moderate densities and with the shape of a basin elongated basin.
