Groundwater management in the Jinan Spring basin is hampered by its complex topography, overexploitation, and excessive urbanisation. This has led to springs drying up during dry seasons a decrease discharge recent years. GIS AHP were employed delineate groundwater potential zones using eight thematic layers: slope, geology, lineament density, topographic wetness index (TWI), rainfall, soil, drainage land use/land cover (LULC). The model’s accuracy was assessed comparing findings observation well data. We found that 74% of observations matched projected zoning. Further validation utilising receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve gave an AUC 0.736. According study, 67.31% good GWPZ, 5.60% very one, 27.07% medium, 0.03% low. Heavy rains throughout rainy season raise water levels. Dry weather lowers study’s conclusions will protect from climate change. Integrating hydrogeological data, GIS, remote sensing, approaches maximises data use, improves zone delineation, promotes sustainable resource decision making. integrated method can help use planners, hydrologists, policymakers find optimal locations for supply projects, establish techniques, reduce risks.

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) has the potential to enhance sustainability of ground and surface water meet increasing demands constrained supplies, even under a changing climate. Since arid semi-arid regions frequently experience highly variable spatiotemporal rainfall patterns, rural communities have developed indigenous RWH techniques capture store rainwater for multiple uses. However, selecting appropriate sites RWH, especially across large regions, remains challenging since data required evaluate suitability using critical criteria are often lacking. This study aimed identify essential develop methodology select in Rajasthan (India). We combined GIS modeling (multicriteria decision analysis) with applied remote sensing as it assess land RWH. As assessment criteria, spatial datasets relating use/cover, rainfall, slope, soil texture, NDVI, drainage density were considered. Later, weights assigned each criterion based on their relative importance system, evidence from published literature, local expert advice, field visits. analyses used create maps (high, moderate, unsuited maps). The sensitivity analysis was also carried out identified check inadequacy inconsistency among preferences. It estimated that 3.6%, 8.2%, 27.3% area highly, moderately, unsuitable, respectively, Chauka implementation. Further, results show LULC is sensitive NDVI least parameter selected region, which suggests weight these parameters more likely decide outcome. Overall, this shows applicability GIS-based MCDA approach up-scaling traditional systems its other similar conditions, where offers increase resource availability reliability support livelihoods.
