摘要:In present study remote sensing and geographic information systems techniques are collectively used to categorize groundwater potential zones in the Dapoli taluka of Ratnagiri District. The conventional maps and SRTM DEM (90 m) data have been used for preparation of the a range of thematic maps like geological, drainage, drainage density, lineament, lineament density, DEM, and slope map for demarcate groundwater potential zones. The each thematic map assigned weight on the basis of its contribution in groundwater potential. The features of each and every thematic map also assigned rank. GIS environment was used to integrate all the thematic maps for computing groundwater potential zones. The groundwater potential zones were classified as excellent, very good, good, moderate and poor. Groundwater potential zones were demarcated on basis of finishing ranking and weight. Accordingly, recognition of potential groundwater zones could be carried out by using combine approach involving remote sensing and geographic information systems.
