Abstract: Groundwater is one of the most valuable natural resources, which supports human health, economic development, ecological diversity and largest available source of fresh water lays underground. Due to its several inherent qualities (e.g. consistent temperature, widespread and continuous availability, excellent natural quality, limited vulnerability, low development cost and drought reliability), increase in the agricultural, industrial and domestic activities in recent years has increased the demand for good quality water to meet the growing needs and it has become an important and dependable source of water supplies in all climatic regions including both urban and rural areas of developed and developing countries. Satellite pictures (DEM) are widely being used for groundwater exploration because of its ability to identify various ground features, which may serve as an indicator of groundwater’s presence, Study and analysis of remote sensing data is a fast and economical way of finding and exploring. The Present study, for assessment of groundwater availability in kuppam area (Chittoor district) shows various groundwater potential zones. In the present study , A standard methodology is proposed to determine groundwater potential using integration of RS & GIS technique. The composite map is generated using GIS tools. The accurate information to obtain the parameters that can be considered for identifying the groundwater potential zone such as geology, slope, drainage density are generated using the satellite data. It is then integrated with weighted overlay in ArcGIS. Suitable ranks are assigned for each category of these parameters. For the various geomorphic units, weight factors are decided based on their capability to store groundwater to generate ground water potential zone map. The groundwater potential zones are classified into five categories like very poor, poor, moderate, good & excellent. The use of suggested methodology is demonstrated for a selected study area Kuppam in Chittoor district of Andhra pradesh. This groundwater potential information will be useful for effective identification of suitable locations for extraction of water.
Keywords: Remote sensing and Geographical information system, DEM (digital elevation model), Thematic maps.
