Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project focuses on the analysis of groundwater quality in urban areas using Geographic Information System (GIS) technology. Groundwater is a vital natural resource that serves as a primary source of drinking water for millions of people living in urban areas. However, due to rapid urbanization, industrial activities, and population growth, groundwater quality is increasingly under threat from contamination. The integration of GIS technology in groundwater quality analysis provides a powerful tool for mapping, monitoring, and managing groundwater resources effectively. Chapter One of this study provides an introduction to the research topic, with sections on the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definition of terms. The chapter sets the foundation for understanding the importance of analyzing groundwater quality in urban areas and the role of GIS technology in this context. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review that examines existing studies, research methodologies, and findings related to groundwater quality analysis and GIS technology applications. The review covers ten key areas, including the principles of groundwater quality assessment, GIS technology in environmental monitoring, and the challenges of urban groundwater management. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology employed in this study, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and GIS tools utilized for groundwater quality analysis. The chapter includes eight contents that provide a clear framework for conducting the research and generating reliable data for analysis. Chapter Four presents a detailed discussion of the research findings, highlighting the key insights and outcomes of the groundwater quality analysis using GIS technology. The chapter covers seven items, including spatial distribution mapping of groundwater quality parameters, identification of contamination sources, and spatial-temporal analysis of groundwater quality trends in urban areas. Chapter Five concludes the research project with a summary of the key findings, implications of the study, recommendations for future research, and practical implications for groundwater resource management in urban areas. The chapter underscores the significance of integrating GIS technology in groundwater quality analysis to enhance decision-making processes and ensure sustainable management of urban groundwater resources. Overall, this research project contributes to the body of knowledge on groundwater quality analysis in urban areas using GIS technology, providing valuable insights for policymakers, environmental agencies, researchers, and stakeholders involved in water resource management. By leveraging the power of GIS technology, this study aims to improve the understanding and management of groundwater quality in urban environments, ultimately safeguarding this precious resource for future generations.
