Abstract The spatial distribution of groundwater exploitation potential is crucial to the sustainable management of groundwater resources in arid regions. In this study, an effective approach is developed using a geographical information system (GIS) associated with the Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory to explore the groundwater exploitation potential based on eight factors (i.e., slope, topography, distance to a river, canal density, lithology, land use, soil type, and groundwater depth)based on pumping test data. Different groundwater exploitation potential zones from the output map are classified as follows: very high (0.67–0.96, 8% of the total area), high (0.45–0.67, 8%), moderate (0.27–0.45, 14%), low (0.13–0.27, 24%), and very low (0.02–0.13, 46%), in the Hotan River basin of the Kunlun Mountains, China. The groundwater exploitation potential is highest in a gravel plain in the piedmont and gradually decreases from the piedmont to the desert. The predicted spatial variability of groundwater exploitation potential can explain 71% of the measured pumping test data. The uncertainty of the groundwater exploitation potential map ranges from
