Water Runoff Estimation Using Geographical Information System (GIS) for Alrakhmah Basin Valley Northeast of Iraq

Geographical Information System (gis) for Water Resources Management

Water resources projects are inherited with overlapping and at times conflicting objectives. These projects are often of varied sizes ranging from major projects with command areas of millions of hectares to very small projects implemented at the local level. Thus, in all these projects there is seldom proper coordination which is essential for ensuring collective sustainability. Integrated wat...

Assessment of Groundwater Quality for Industrial Purposes Using Geographical Information System (GIS) in Zahedan, Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Iran

Introduction: Water quality is essential for industries because they play an important role in countries’ economic development. Groundwater is one of the most widely used resources, and when the ionic constituents were increasing higher than the allowable limit, it increases the cost of maintenance and production in the industries.
