Groundwater Exploration Using GIS approach (Monywa District)

Abstract

In today's system, Geographic Information System is a very effective tool in completing many types of analysis and manipulation of data. The use of GIS has grown quickly in groundwater management and research. GIS is now widely used to create digital geographic databases, to manipulate and prepare data as input for various model parameters and to display model output. This hydrogeological mapping program will allow in the near future to meet efficiently the needs for a more considered and effective management of groundwater in GIS with a hydrogeological database. For this reason, it seems very effective to use GIS in hydrogeological database and groundwater exploration of Monywa district. The main'purpose of this paper is to investigate the depth of well to map hydrogeology of the Monywa district.
