The mobile application allows users to find potential artificial recharge zones within a three-kilometre radius and explore suitable structures based on local conditions. Additionally, the web portal offers village-level artificial recharge structure zonation maps, GIS tools, and thematic layers.
The platform uses geospatial datasets such as rainfall, groundwater levels, yield, slope, and drainage to help identify potential recharge areas and plan appropriate interventions.
