Godavari River - Altitude profile

Using topocoding.com's API available to map the altitudes, I created the profile of Godavari River's altitude.

The starting point is at Basara ( AP-Maharastra border) from where Godavari flows exclusively in AP and the end point is Bay of Bengal, where it terminates at yanam.




This total length, according to the profile plot, is about 720 kms.

You can see that there is one minor dip in the above Figure. It corresponds to Sriram Sagar (@ nearly 72kms) and this is only gravity dam built on Godavari.

Overall, Krishna drops from 1100ft+ (310mts+) to sea level in its entire journey in AP (starting just before Basara).

note: Ignore those spikes in the Figure. Knots just wandered a little bit while tracing Godavari in the map. They are just measurement errors.
