Ground Water Potential Studies Using Geo-Spatial Technique A Case Study In Karanjia Block Of Odisha, India

The present study has been conducted to analyse the ground water potential zones in Karanjia Block of Mayurbhanj district, Odisha. Identify the ground water potential studies of Nine parameters have been considered for the study such as drainage density, elevation, geology, geomorphology, land use and land cover, lineaments, slope and soil texture. The selected parameters have been prepared and classified in GIS. Weightage for each parameter and its classes have been assigned, then weighted overlay analysis tool in ArcGIS used to find out the result. The result of study has been compared with the collected sample data to assess the accuracy of result. The comparison of study’s result has given 95 per cent accuracy.
