摘要：Increase in the demand of water for industrial and human purposes has brought an awareness to save groundwater resources which is the primary source. Remote sensing data and the Geographical Information System (GIS) canbe integrated for the exploration of groundwater resources and it becomes a breakthrough in the field of groundwaterresearch, which assists in assessing, monitoring, and conserving groundwater resources. An attempt has been made inthe present study to delineate groundwater potential zones of Krishnagiri district, Tamil Nadu using remote sensing andGIS techniques. Survey of India toposheets and LISS-IV satellite imageries are used to prepare various thematic layersviz. slope, land-use/land-cover, drainage, soil, geology, geomorphology and rainfall. The thematic layers that are invector are converted to raster using feature to raster converter tool in ArcGIS10. The raster maps of these factors areallocated a fixed score and weight computed from Multi Influencing Factor (MIF) technique. Moreover, each weightedthematic layer is statistically computed to yield a groundwater potential zone map of the study area. The groundwaterpotential zones thus obtained were divided into four categories, viz., very poor, poor, good, and very good zones. Theresult depicts the groundwater potential zones in the study area and creates awareness in better planning andmanagement of groundwater resources.
