Apart from optical and microwave data thermal infrared sensor data have also been used for identification of groundwater potential zones under certain conditions. Heilman et al (1982) found a correlation between Heat Capacity Mapping Mission-derived radiometric temperatures and groundwater depth when the effect of vegetation on the surface thermal region was considered. Similarly, a correlation between predawn radiometric temperature and thickness of aquifer was also observed (Moore, 1982). In-spite of encouraging results, insufficient ground spatial resolution and lack of repetitive global calibrated thermal data precludes the usage of thermal infrared data for groundwater studies. Thus, the satellite data provide supporting information for recharge estimation, draft estimation, mapping of prospective zones, identification of over exploited and under developed/undeveloped areas and prioritization of areas for recharge structures which conjunctively facilitate systematic planning, development and management of groundwater resources on a sustainable basis.
