This book offers essential information on geospatial technologies
for water resource management and highlights the latest GIS and
geostatistics techniques as they relate to groundwater. Groundwater
is inarguably India's single most important natural resource. It is
the foundation of millions of Indian farmers' livelihood security
and the primary source of drinking water for a vast majority of
Indians in rural and urban areas. The prospects of continued high
rates of growth in the Indian economy will, to a great extent,
depend on how judiciously we can manage groundwater in the years to
come. Over the past three decades, India has emerged as by far the
single largest consumer of groundwater in the world. Though
groundwater has made the country self-sufficient in terms of food,
we face a crisis of dwindling water tables and declining water
quality. Deep drilling by tube wells, which was once part of the
solution to water shortages, is now in danger of becoming part of
the problem. Consequently, we urgently need to focus our efforts on
the sustainable and equitable management of groundwater. Addressing
that need, this book presents novel advances in and applications of
RS–GIS and geostatistical techniques to the research community in
a precise and straightforward manner.
