For integration of water resources and urban planning, it is prime requisite to know the groundwater potential sites, surface water availability and quality of water resources available or to be available for the population of the area. Urban planner must consider the fact that requirement of quality and quantity of water is different for various sectors like residential, commercial and industrial of urban area. As stated earlier there are two ways to fulfill the need of population of any town; one is groundwater and second is surface water. Now days the dependency for water requirement is increased on groundwater because of limited availability of surface water resources for domestic and other uses. People fulfill their need either through bore well, hand pump or by wells. Groundwater is one of the most valuable natural resources, which supports human health, economic development and ecological diversity. Because of its several inherent qualities it has become an immensely important and dependable source of water supplies in all climatic regions including both urban and rural areas of developed and developing countries (M.L.Waikar et al, 2014). Groundwater potential zone mapping is done using integration of various parameters responsible and indicator of groundwater recharge sites. Groundwater potential zones are identified in the study area for integration with other layers to obtain optimum sites for urban planning and development. Groundwater potential zones are delineated on the basis of some thematic layers like Lithology, geomorphology, soil, landuse, lineaments, slope and drainage of the study area.
