摘要：Due to the highly complex nature of both human and physical systems, the ability to understand them and model future conditions using a watershed approach has taken a geographic aspect. Satellite remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology have played a vital role in all aspects of watershed management. For the study of hydrogeology of Moroda block of Mayurbhanj District Thematic maps are prepared by visual interpretation of SOI toposheets and linearly enhanced merged data of Landsat, Cartosat and LISS-III imagery on 1:50,000 scale using ERDAS and Arc GIS software. The main aim of the study involves compiling and analyzing all available data on hydro-geological framework of the block to assess its ground water development potential for improving socio-economic development of the block. By study we find that the entire block can be broadly divided into two distinct zones viz; tertiary formation and river alluvium. The hydro-geological setup and ground water development potential of these formation varies significantly from each other. The granular zone occurring under un-confined and semi-confined condition in the tertiary tract of the district can suitably be tapped through installation shallow tube wells as well as medium deep tube wells.
