State-of-the-art GIS spatial data management and analysis tools are
revolutionizing the field of water resource engineering.
Familiarity with these technologies is now a prerequisite for
success in engineers' and planners' efforts to create a reliable
infrastructure. GIS in Water Resource Engineering presents a review
of the concepts and applications of GIS in the various sub-fields
of water resource engineering. After a summary review of analyses
and database functions, the book addresses concepts and
applications in the following areas: Surface Water Hydrology
Groundwater Hydrology Water Supply and Irrigation systems
Wastewater and Stormwater Systems Floodplain Management Water
Quality Water Resource Monitoring and Forecasting River Basin
Planning and Management The book develops a general understanding
of the nature of GIS and how it is used to create and analyze
geographic data. The author first introduces primary field data
collection methods and describes procedures for interpretation and
analysis. The second portion of the book focuses on the linkage of
GIS data with water resource analysis and management models.
Applications are presented with descriptions of GIS database
development, analysis background theory, and model integration with
GIS. The profound impact of GIS systems on water resources
engineering continues to grow. GIS in Water Resource Engineering
arms engineers and planners with an arsenal of tools to assist in
the creation of a reliable, environmentally sensitive,
infrastructure.
