   In order to be aware of groundwater-level fluctuations in arid and semi-arid regions, it is necessary to make an accurate forecast of the groundwater depth situation. The drying of Hamoon lake, severe water shortages and significant reduction in groundwater levels have led to critical environmental conditions in the Sistan plain. Spatial understanding of groundwater depth changes in the region and awareness of the severity of groundwater depletion are important for the development of water resources management strategies. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of zoning groundwater depth using geostatistics and GIS techniques in the agricultural lands of Sistan plain located in the east of Hamoon Lake, with an area of about 201000 ha. For this purpose, groundwater depth data were collected from 846 wells by field survey using piezometric wells in the study area.  In this research, various geostatistical methods including deterministic interpolation method and geostatistical methods were evaluated to compare the prediction ability of groundwater depth spatial variations. The results showed that the intensity of groundwater depth changes in the study area with a coefficient of variation of 19.87% is moderate. The spherical model could better explain the spatial variation of the experimental variogram of the studied parameter in the region. Finally, the results related to the deterministic method of inverse distance weighted with power 2 estimates a better prediction for groundwater depth zoning than kriging and cokriging geostatistical methods.

  The main goal of this project is to empower local communities, i. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of this project on the development of local communities in Hamoon area. The present study is descriptive-analytical in terms of applied purpose and in terms of data collection and analysis methods. . Field data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire and collected by survey and interview. The results showed that this project in the social dimension only in the areas of (increasing self-confidence in the abilities of people in rural areas, increasing the participation of women in rural development, solidarity and mass communication between women in rural areas, the existence of networks Social and economic for girls and women in the countryside, social security suitable for the movement of women and girls), in the environmental dimension in items (promotion and implementation of training classes by regional promoters, training of various crops in the field ) Has had favorable effects in terms of infrastructure in items (access to various agricultural inputs, access to rural cooperatives) and in other economic and physical dimensions has not had a favorable effect in any of the items. Also, the results of spatial analysis of local community development by development dimensions in Hamoon area showed that Kikha village has the highest rank in dimensions (economic, social, physical, infrastructure, environmental) in terms of the impact of the Menarid project.
