I have made an open well (depth 51 ft) in 2004 in my 15 acre plot in Thoppampatti Block, Palani Taluk, Dindugal District. Tamilnadu. As the water was not sufficient for farming the entire land (Coconut - Drip Irrigation in 7 Acres - all 2 Year Old). I made a borewell of 740 ft depth. Quantity of water I got in 220 ft never increased after that and we stopped the further drilling as it was going in full rock. While testing the water quantity it feeds only 8 lt/mintute.   This point was identified by a local water diviner using conventional / traditional method.

I would like to assess the groundwater presence by using electrical resistivity survey and satellite imaging for sinking a good borewell. Could you kindly provide the contact information of relevant local agencies / entities ?
