Application of Satellite Remote Sensing, GIS and Geoelectrical Resistivity Methods for Groundwater Potential Mapping for Jos and Environs, Plateau State, North Central Nigeria

Abstract

An integrated approach of Remote sensing GIS and geoelectrical resistivity methods was employed to produce groundwater potential map for Jos and environs through theGISraster based Multi Criteria Evaluation MCE analysis of five thematic layers. These layers drainage density, lineament density, Landuse cover, slope steepness and overburden thickness wereextractedfrom Nigeria Sat X, ASTERGDEM and geoelectrical resistivity methods. The result revealed four categories of groundwater potential zones as, very high, high, moderate, and low. About 105km2 18.4 was classified as very high groundwater potential areas, while155km2 27.4 of the study area was classified as high groundwater potential areas. Similarly, 225km2 39.8 was classified as moderate potential areas and about 82km2 14.5 of the study area was classified as low potential areas. The model developed was in agreement with the borehole yield obtained in the area.
