Abstract:

Availability of surface & ground water and firewood is attenuation in many regions. In the study area is the same problem to shrinking the water. The study has also revealed that the GIS techniques are time/cost-effective and can be employed successfully in the planning stages of a ground-water exploration programme. In addition, the GIS data generated for the study of ground-water prospects can be updated and used for the planning and management of ground-water resources of the area of study. Huge geo-scientific data related to various ground-water parameters provide enormous scope for using the Geographic Information System (GIS) to draw meaningful conclusions on the ground-water prospects of an area. To demonstrate the efficiency of the GIS for ground-water studies, information on the parameters controlling ground water such as lithology, geomorphology, structure, and recharge condition of study area were analyzed using ARC GIS environment. Existing maps and records were used as data. Different thematic layers are prepared using remote sensing and GIS for the assessment of water resources status. The union shape file of land use / land cover, geology, geomorphology, soil and slope status maps have been incorporated in the Arc GIS as input maps. The existing water resource classes have been reclassified according to the standard statement, five classes of water resources can be regrouped into three classes such as good, moderate and poor status of water resources in the study area. Overall results show that nearly about 50% of the geographical area has good and moderate resources. Another major part of poor resource areas need to be reclaimed to restore and improve its resource status. Management plan has been suggested.
