ABSTRACT India is the largest consumer of ground water in the world and caters greater than 60% for agriculture and up to 85% for ingesting purposes. Ground water is an essential aid for contributing extensively in whole annual supply. However, over exploitation has depleted floor water availability extensively and it leads to ground water scarcity at some places. So figuring out the workable zones of ground water is extremely essential for planning and management of floor water. The conservation and sustainable advancement of soil and water belongings is one of the vital requirements for enchantment of arid and semi-arid regions. Ground water conceivable zones can be identified with the assist of RS&GIS techniques. The present study is to identify the groundwater potential zones in APCRDA region of Guntur district. Groundwater doable zones will be delineated using GIS equipment and various thematic maps have to be developed to reap the result. The thematic maps that are wanted for figuring out the floor water workable zones are soils, slope, drainage, geology, rainfall, and these are generated using satellite data, SOI Toposheets and GSI maps. The groundwater attainable map has to be organized the use of weighted overlay model. All the subject matters and their aspects have been assigned with weights according to their relative significance and their normalized weights had been calculated after the rating by pair sensible assessment of weighted overlay analysis. The obtained consequences have to be validated with the particular yield of the aquifer in the find out about area. Then the proposed model can be significantly used by decision maker to discover the floor water potential zones, which is a top thing for the planning and development. Keywords: RS&GIS techniques, Ground water.

INTRODUCTION
Water is an important phase of our day to day life. Human more often than not depends on the water for their survival. About seventy-one percent of earth surface is included with water. In that the oceans keep about 96.5 percent of earth’s water and 3.5 percentage holds clean water. Water also exists in the air as water vapour, rivers, lakes, icecaps, glaciers and in the floor as soil moisture and in aquifers. The majority of water on the earth surface is saline and it does no longer appropriate for ingesting &Amp; agricultural purposes. The 3.5 proportion of glowing water is no longer enough for each consuming and agricultural purpose. Generally, this water is reachable in the sources like surface and sub-surface. The surface water is now no longer on hand at some stage in the year due to loads much less rainfall and warmness climate. So the alternate supply is sub-surface water. According to Hindu enterprise line(paper) in the present day survey [15-dec-2019] India is great consumer of groundwater in the world for caters greater than 60 proportion for agriculture and additionally up to 85 proportion for eating purpose. Groundwater is used intently for vary functions due to the reality it can be accessed greater cheaply and easily. So it consequences in relying of ground water. Due to excessive extraction, the amount of flooring water stage decreases day by means of way of day. There will be a serious floor water issue interior subsequent years. The extraction of water takes region at a tempo which does now no longer allow the water desk to get higher its losses. Recharge technique in inadequate assessment to fee of extraction. As a

Soil: Infiltration capacity heavily relies upon the soil texture. Porosity and permeability are directly influenced by means of texture. Infiltration capacity of the fine grained soil is low in contrast to coarse grained soil because of porosity and permeability. The soils of the district can extensively be categorized below three categories: (1) zonal (2) intra-zonal and (3) azonal. The zonal soils, which are developed insitu, are of purple sandy type, dispensed in components of Macherla, Sattenapalle, Narsaraopeta and Vinukonda taluks. These soils are right for agriculture, if true manure and irrigated. Under the intrazonal class calcium rich, deep black soils and blended black and red soils manifest over pretty massive tract. The deep black soils are distributed along a linear strip in parts of Palnad, Vinukonda and Narsaraopet taluks. These soils are somewhat productive. A foremost phase of the location along the sea coast in the southeast and adjacent to Krishna River in the north is occupied via deltaic alluvial soils. These soils are especially productive excessive in water tight hold and keeping the district in exact stead in respect of agriculture.
SOIL MAP Geology: It deals with the physical shape and substance of the earth, their history and The region is underlain through variety of geological formations of different age groups ranging from Achaean to Recent. The Achaean basement complicated comprising the granite-gneisses, Schists, Khondalites, Charnockites and basic dykes of dolerites form the predominant rock sorts in the central part. The granitoids and granitic gneisses are intruded by using variety of Gabbro’s, Norite and Dolerite dykes. The Upper Gondwana team of sandstones and shales out crop is seen at places between Guntur and Tenali.

The youngest rock kinds of the district show up to be of Mio-Pliocene age observed via the alluvial deposits of Recent to Sub-Recent age. Basic Charnokites are exposed in the applied area in the structure of boulders. They are made up of Hypersthene, Quartz, Biotite and Grey Feldspar and different mafic minerals. These rocks belong to Granulite facies of metamorphism and they are anticipated to have been formed due to palingnetic fusion of and metamorphism. These rocks signify the Precambrian basement of Easternghat province. The khondalites of this place are Melanocratic (dark colour), crystalline. Size of the grains tiers from very medium to coarse grained Anhedral to subhedral porphyritic texture is the attribute feature.
GEOLOGY MAP Drainage Density: A drainage basin is a natural unit draining runoff water to a common point. This map consists of water bodies, rivers, tributaries, perennial, ponds. Drainage density and type of drainage offers records associated to runoff, infiltration alleviation and permeability. Dendritic drainage shows homogenous rocks, the trellis, rectangular and parallel drainage patterns indicate structural and lithological controls. The coarse drainage texture suggests especially porous and permeable rock formations; whereas best drainage texture is extra frequent in less pervious formations. Major faults, lineaments occasionally connect two or more drainage basins and act as conduits (Interconnecting channel ways). Flow of groundwater along these week zones is a mounted fact. Drainage pattern reflects floor traits as nicely as subsurface formation. Drainage density (in terms of Km/Km2) suggests closeness of spacing of channel as nicely as the nature of floor material, hence providing a quantitative measure of common length of circulate channel for whole basin. It has been discovered from drainage density size made over a huge vary of geologic and climatic kind that a low drainage density is more in all likelihood to occur in region and fantastically resistant of relatively permeable subsoil cloth

below dense vegetative cover and place comfort is low. High drainage density is the resultant of susceptible or impermeable subsurface material, sparse vegetation and mountainous relief. Low drainage density leads to coarse drainage texture while high drainage density leads to best drainage texture. The drainage density characterizes the runoff in an area or in other words, the quantum of relative rainwater that could have infiltrated. Hence the lesser the drainage density, the greater is the chance of recharge or practicable groundwater zone.
DRAINAGE DENSITY MAP Slope: The slope or gradient of a line describes its steepness, incline, or grade. A greater slope price shows a steeper incline. The slope is defined as the ratio of the altitude exchange to the promote infiltration and groundwater recharge, and steeply sloping grounds motivate run-off and little or no infiltration. Groundwater potentiality is expected to be increased in the flat and gently sloping area. Flatter topography then will supply more danger for groundwater accumulation. If the slope is less the weightage is high, slope is medium weightage is given as average and slope is high weightage is low.
