Complete Study

In the present study, delineation of ground water potential in Jodhpur district, Rajasthan is framed by using geospatial technique (i.e., remote sensing and GIS) and with multi-criteria leadership (MCDM) procedure. The analytical network process (ANP) is one of the suitable strategies that makes the research workable for delineation methodically, and corporate the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) as an uncommon case. For proper value to recognize the ground water potential zone in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, the AHP and ANP methods are utilized to decide the values of different parameters and their classes. The AHP values are then connected in a direct mix into raster calculator to get five distinctive groundwater potential zones in the investigation region, to be specific as ‘very poor' (2052.0 km2), ‘poor' (4225.9 km2), ‘moderate' (6355.1 km2), ‘good' (6451.2 km2), and ‘very good' (3301.7 km2). It has been presumed that about 9752.9 km2 area of Jodhpur district has very good to good groundwater potential, which is about 43.56% of the complete study area.
