Abstract
The aim of the examination is undertaken to delineation of groundwater potential areas demarked by geospatial technologies in semi arid region, Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh. From the processing of LANDSAT data processed in GIS software, prepared a various thematic maps (Geology, Geomorphology, Lineaments, Lineaments density, Drainage, Drainage density, LU/LC, Soils groundwater potential maps). Majority of the focused region occupied with fallow land, shale's and tuff, Pediment-Pedi Plain Complex, dendritic drainage. Geomorphology point of view pediment and pediplain complex which is contain the moderate groundwater, flood plain contains very good groundwater, and denudational hill contains the poor groundwater in the study area. The results of the study are in four categories viz., poor 28.89(9.53%)km2, moderate 145.73(48.09) km2, good92.57 (30.55%)km2 and very good 36.13(11.92%)km2, groundwater potential zones.The groundwater potential map which is helpful for comprehend, planning and management activity of current study area.
