contents <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Groundwater serves as a crucial resource in semi-arid regions where surface water availability is scarce. This study focuses on the spatial assessment of groundwater potential zones in Karjat Taluka of Ahilyanagar district, Maharashtra. The region is characterized by irregular and low rainfall, making groundwater the main source for both domestic and agricultural needs. By applying geospatial tools such as Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing, multiple thematic layers—namely geology, geomorphology, slope, drainage density, land use/land cover, and rainfall—were integrated to identify groundwater potential zones. The analysis categorizes the area into high, moderate, and low groundwater potential zones. Findings indicate that low-lying areas and river basins possess high groundwater potential, whereas upland and rocky terrains show poor potential. The study emphasizes the need for scientific groundwater management and watershed-based approaches to ensure sustainable utilization of water resources.</span></p>
