Kallayi River is a small river situated in the Kozhikode district of Kerala.it is well known for its timber business. This river is being polluted by these timber businesses and other human activities. This paper deals with the water quality analysis of river Kallayi in post-monsoon and premonsoon seasons and assesses the water quality index using the CCME method and GIS mapping. The parameters analyzed are pH, turbidity, chloride, DO, BOD, COD, E coli, and total coliform.
