The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development emphasizes that sustainability encompasses three dimensions: economic, social, and environmental. Monitoring society’s impact on natural resources involves identifying activities that affect ecosystem processes. Geospatial technology plays a key role in detecting community-level development projects and evaluating sustainable development outcomes at the district level. The main objective of the study is to show the impact of implementation of SDGs on the development of community livelihood and overall infrastructure Development. The study focuses on Keonjhar district in Odisha, one of the vulnerable districts in the state. Public works under the MGNREGA program have made significant progress across all 13 blocks of the district. According to the 2019 dashboard, 2267 village clusters actively participated in the initiative, with 575,708 workers involved in the program. The study area encompasses more than 26,389 assets, covering an expanse of 653,900 hectares of land. From 2009 to 2019, these assets have been developed, primarily focusing on projects related to irrigation, water conservation, water harvesting, and drought-proofing efforts. From the year 2017 and 2018, there is demand and increase in rural sanitation works in the study area

Keywords: SDG, MGNREGA, Geospatial, conservation, ecosystem
