For the basin shown in Fig. 1, the normal annual rainfall depths recorded and the isohyetals are
given. Determine the optimum number of rain-gauge stations to be established in the basin if it is
desired to limit the error in the mean value of rainfall to 10%. Indicate how you are going to
distribute the additional rain-gauge stations required if any. What is the percentage accuracy of the
existing network in the estimation of the average depth of rainfall over the basin? The area between
the isohyetals are given below:
