This grant is for conducting crucial research aimed at investigating the potential of ground water resources within specific study sites. The project will involve the comprehensive use of remotely sensed satellite images, in conjunction with detailed hydrological and geological data, to accurately map and assess groundwater availability. Key deliverables include the generation of digital image maps for the Area of Interest, specifically illustrating the Potential Shallow Ground Water (PSGW). Furthermore, a parallel effort will focus on developing a second model to create a Potential Infiltration (PI) map. This vital research initiative seeks to enhance understanding of water resource distribution, supporting informed decision-making for sustainable resource management by leveraging advanced geospatial technologies and integrated data analysis.

Additional Information
| Agency Name: | Geological Survey |
| Description: | US Geological Survey in offering a funding opportunity to a CESU Partner for research in the investigation of the use of remotely sensed satellite images, in conjunction with hydrological and geological data, to map the potential of ground water resources. Digital image maps are being generated for the AOI which will show the potential availability of shallow ground water within the study sites. Along with the Potential Shallow Ground Water (PSGW) model a second one is being developed that generates Potential Infiltration (PI) map. |
