Surface and groundwater resources are of the most important issues in the development of rural communities. Because in these areas, water resources have a significant impact on economic development, especially agricultural activities. Meanwhile remote sensing technology and geographic information system (GIS) are used to prepare extensive and on-time land use maps. The aim of this study was to study the role of water resources and these challenges on the trend of changes in rural settlements and in in Sari County. In order to apply the remote sensing technology in this research, Landsat 8 satellite images were used in 2014, 2017 and 2019 then the radiometric calibration were done and land use map was obtained for each of the years. According to the land use map in 2014, 2017 and 2019, agricultural - rural land use in Sari County was 306.25, 290.83 and 300.38 square kilometers, respectively. Also, the results showed that surface and groundwater resources changes in selected years and the reduction of these resources have reduced the agricultural - rural land use areas. Therefore, the nnecessity for less dependence of farmers and rural community on water resources with the creation and development of infrastructure related to other agricultural activities such as rural tourism and agro- tourism with low dependence on water resources has been proposed.
