摘要
Groundwater, the most vital natural resource, plays an important role in meeting the sustainable part of domestic, agriculture, and industrial needs of any country. The management of groundwater resources is a major challenging issue being faced by scientists, planners, and managers of the world. In this connection, a systematic study of groundwater potential zones and proper strategy for its management is urgently required. The present research is focused to demarcate the different zones of groundwater potential and sites suitable for water conservation structures by using remote sensing (RS) and Geographical Information System (GIS) in the part of Central India. To achieve the goal of the research, the geospatial technique is applied to prepare a different thematic map of each influencing factor such as geology, geomorphology, soil, lineament density, drainage density, land use/land cover, and slope. The weightage and rank are assigned for various thematic layers as per their influences to recharge the aquifer. From overall results, the groundwater potential zone map has prepared and classified into high (8%) moderate (67%) and low potential zone (25%). A validation of the result is carried out by randomly selecting different dug wells present in the research area. The yield of dug wells supports the findings of the study. To manage the groundwater resources, various artificial recharge structures are suggested. The findings and suggestions of the study would be very helpful for improving the groundwater resources (quality as well as quantity) and development of the area.
