Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project focuses on the analysis of groundwater quality in urban areas utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing techniques. The study aims to investigate the spatial distribution and quality of groundwater in urban environments, which is crucial for ensuring sustainable water resource management and public health. The integration of GIS and Remote Sensing technologies provides a powerful tool for mapping, analyzing, and monitoring groundwater quality parameters over a large geographical area. The research begins with an introduction that outlines the background of the study, highlights the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definitions of key terms. The literature review in Chapter Two covers ten key items related to groundwater quality, GIS, Remote Sensing, and their applications in urban water resource management. Chapter Three details the research methodology, including data collection methods, sampling techniques, laboratory analysis procedures, GIS mapping techniques, Remote Sensing data acquisition, and analytical tools used for groundwater quality assessment. The chapter also discusses the quality control measures implemented to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the research findings. In Chapter Four, the research findings are presented and discussed in detail, focusing on the spatial distribution of groundwater quality parameters such as pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids, heavy metal concentrations, and microbial contamination in urban areas. The analysis of the data obtained through GIS and Remote Sensing techniques provides valuable insights into the sources, extent, and potential risks associated with groundwater pollution in the study area. The conclusion and summary in Chapter Five provide a comprehensive overview of the research findings, highlighting the key insights, implications for water resource management, and recommendations for future research. The study underscores the importance of integrating GIS and Remote Sensing technologies in groundwater quality assessment to support evidence-based decision-making and sustainable urban development practices. Overall, this research project contributes to the growing body of knowledge on groundwater quality assessment in urban areas and demonstrates the effectiveness of GIS and Remote Sensing techniques in enhancing our understanding of water resources and environmental sustainability. The findings of this study have practical implications for policymakers, urban planners, environmental agencies, and stakeholders involved in water resource management and public health initiatives.
