Please Let me clarify my doubt how to calculate Basin length and Perimeter through ArcGIS software for Morphometric Analysis of River Basin.
Thank you in Advance.

dear raja sekhar u go hydrology tools in arc gis directly come through dem
You can use Arc-hydro tool instead its very simple tool and documentation with example file is also provided online.

Hi
for perimeter calculation you just right click on basin shapfile and then select attribute table and then create a field with a specific name. Then right click on this column and select calculate geometry tool. when you select this tool a window will appear that say which geometry you want to calculate. you should choose Perimeter and press Ok button. After this you can find the calculated perimeter..
For basin length calculation you need longest flow path and basin area. By dividing basin area per longest flow path, basin length can be obtained. For calculating longest flow path a suggest you GeoHMS or ArcHydro extensions. If you need more help, don't hesitate to contact me.

Basin length is calculated using the relationship 1.312 × power(A, 0.568) (Sreedevi et al. 2005)
Where A is the basin area obtained from attribute table.
Instead you can use ArcHydro or GeoHMS in ArcGIS.
Best wish!

You can add column to attribute table with title perimeter, then right click this column and press calculate geometry and units of perimeter.you will get the desired perimeter
