Abstract
The geographic information system (GIS) techniques were used to groundwater recharge estimation and groundwater recharge potential map in Chiang Mai Basin. The groundwater recharge estimation use slope, rainfall and infiltration factor for calculation. Amount of groundwater recharge are 597.20 – 896.19 m3/year. The study used lithology, land use, lineaments, drainage and slope gradient as influence factors to the groundwater recharge potential. The groundwater potentiality was integrated from thematic maps and derived from the sum of the weighted factor using weight overlay method in the GIS system. Almost of the study area is classified as the high groundwater recharge potential zone. The moderate groundwater recharge potential zone is located in the western part of study area and along with the Ping River.
