Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project focuses on the analysis of groundwater quality in urban areas utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) technology. Groundwater is a vital natural resource that serves as a primary source of drinking water for many urban populations. However, urbanization and human activities have led to an increase in groundwater contamination, posing significant risks to public health and the environment. The integration of GIS technology provides a powerful tool for assessing and monitoring groundwater quality, as well as identifying potential sources of contamination.

Chapter Five Conclusion and Summary of Research

Groundwater quality in urban areas is a critical issue that requires effective monitoring and management strategies. This research project demonstrates the importance of utilizing GIS technology for assessing and analyzing groundwater quality, identifying sources of contamination, and developing sustainable management practices. The findings highlight the spatial variability of groundwater quality parameters and the need for coordinated efforts among stakeholders to protect and preserve this essential resource. By integrating GIS technology with traditional groundwater monitoring techniques, urban areas can enhance their capacity to safeguard water quality and ensure the long-term sustainability of their water supply.
