Abstract
The current research delineates groundwater potentiality in the Pandavapura taluk to facilitate sustainable groundwater management. Multiple data layers were obtained from various sources and weighted using an Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP). Then overlay using the Union tool in Arc GIS 10.8. This process resulted in a classified groundwater potential zone layer, which was classified into five categories. The results of this research were then validated utilizing 10-year pre and post-monsoon water depth data. The findings indicate that geospatial technologies and AHP can effectively delineate potential groundwater zones.
