Abstract: This article presents the design of a rural water distribution system that is intended for use in rural areas of the country. The network for the distribution of water supplies is intended to accommodate the anticipated population in thirty years' time. The most effective and cost - effective method of water distribution has been designed with the use of EXCEL, Google Maps, Google Earth, GIS and AutoCAD. The research region is scheduled to get an intermittent water supply, taking the 55 liters per capita per day (lpcd) water consumption into account. When designing an inexpensive water supply distribution system, factors such as the flow velocity in the pipe, the material of the pipe, the level of the reservoir, the peak factor, and the available commercial pipe sizes are taken into consideration. The Undri village section of the Panhala taluka in the Kolhapur district of Maharashtra is the target for the water supply distribution system that has been constructed.
