Development of Integrated Geographic Database for Water Quality Analysis
Keywords:
Water quality, Spatial data, Non spatial dataAbstract
Ground water is source for water supply in many parts of the world catering to the requirements of one third of global population. In fact, the declining status of global fresh water resources both in terms of quantity and quality may prove to be the dominant issue on the environment and development agenda of the coming century. To provide safe drinking water, it is required to plan and design a project with economy and safety. Planning is all about dealing with various kinds of data, to analyze them and to make a suitable decision. Present work is generation of GIS based database for water quality parameters of Allahabad city. At any time, if one wants to update this data, it could be done by directly overwriting the old data. The attribute data table of a particular feature is then linked to its corresponding location in the shapefiles. Thus, the water quality parameters are now linked to each location of hand pump as well as to the tube well sampling locations as attributes as well as for water treatment plant and clear water reservoir.
