Introduction

Abstract

To have a reasonable equitable water distribution of groundwater, a planned approach for exploration, exploitation and management of water is required. General groundwater geology also must be well understood for exploration and exploitation in a particular area. The exploration is mainly done by geophysical investigation which is based on the physical properties of the earth formations. The electrical method of prospecting is most useful process for surface groundwater exploration. For subsurface, geophysical well-logging technique is very much useful because the data are closed to the borehole wall. For designing a well, the aquifer characteristics are required to be known with the help of pump tests. The water quality should be studied with different analysis before drinking. Though there is plenty of water in global scale, the shortage of water is observed in local scale. Hence, management planning of water in respect of demand and supply is very much important to meet the water requirement for present generation and future generation.
