Ground water resources potential is the value we can get from using different methods like technology and management, influenced by natural factors and how we use the water. By assessing ground water resources, we can figure out how much potential there is for development. The methods for estimating this potential vary depending on the region and phase because many factors affect ground water differently. Right now, we're using more ground water for development, saving water, and balancing ground water use based on where it's available and how society is growing.
