The data deals with the preparation of the groundwater potential zone map of gudur area, with the help of data like geology and geomorphology, structure/lineament, slope and drainage and the thematic layer were prepared through the Survey of India toposheet Nos. N/12,N/15,N/16 and IRS-P6 LISS-III(RESOURCESAT-2) satellite data. The groundwater potential zones were obtained and classified into four categories, viz., very poor, poor, good, and very good zones. The data explains lateritic plain moderate basement with poor potential zones whereas secondarily occupies alluvial plain contains the good prospecting zone. Keywords: Geology, Geomorphology, Lineament, Drainage, Slope map and Hydro geomorphology map
