Land use and land cover pattern changes are most important
factors for assessment of groundwater water conditions of
any area. Water resources are under severe pressure due to
land use practices and climate change. Land use pattern
changes and their estimation describe the utilization of land
resource by manmade activities particularly agriculture andurbanization (YanYun et al., 2014; Singh et al., 2012).
Hydrological
inferences from land use pattern can help understand
the changing scenario of water demand from different activities
such as Agricultural requirement, domestic needs, industrialization
and its can also used to understand the infiltration,
recharge and runoff rate of the watershed. Land use pattern
changes become an important component in hydrological
monitoring and natural resources management (Rawat et al.,
2013; Sylla et al.2012).
