Multiple data layers were obtained from various sources and weighted using an Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP). Then overlay using the Union tool in Arc GIS 10.8. This process resulted in a classified groundwater potential zone layer, which was classified into five categories. The results of this research were then validated utilizing 10-year pre and post-monsoon water depth data. The findings indicate that geospatial technologies and AHP can effectively delineate potential groundwater zones.</p></abstract><kwd-group><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Analytical Hierarchical Process</kwd><kwd> Arc GIS 10.8</kwd><kwd> Groundwater potential zone</kwd><kwd> Pandavapura taluk</kwd><kwd> Sustainable groundwater management</kwd></kwd-group><counts><ref-count count='' /><page-count count='' /></counts></article-meta></front></article>
