Human-induced modifications on land and water are posing a serious threat to geo-environment in general and groundwater regime in particular along the fringe areas of most cities in the world. Use of Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (RS-GIS) techniques is one solution to generate sound database for identifying problems, evaluating their impact and providing locale specific solutions.
