Ground Water Management Studies Using RS & GIS Techniques for Gorakhpur City

Abstract This study included advanced technology and tool combination applications such as remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS) & electrical resistance, potential zones of MCDA Groundwater resources. Groundwater is the most valuable and widespread resource on Earth. It is an important water source for a variety of purposes such as household, industrial and agricultural needs. In the hydrological cycle, groundwater occurs when surface water (precipitation) penetrates deep and fills the spaces between cracks in soil or sediment particles or rocks. Geology, geomorphology, precipitation, Alignment, land use, land cover (LULC), drainage density, soil type, slope, and texture were mapped. It has a weight according to the effect on the groundwater potential. Affected normalization. In this study, we use the AHP method to apply relative contributions. Vertical electric sounding was performed at various points to find the aquatic layer / fracture zone. The areas of groundwater potential depicted using these methods were divided into five categories. Zone, low, medium, medium high, high, very high potential. groundwater potential zone the depiction shows that high potential regions exist in the western and northeast regions, while there are low regions. Intermediate groundwater potential located in central and eastern. The research work plans to develop a methodology based on fuzzy logic & AHP for mapping the groundwater potential of the study area.
