  • Water Table Contour for Salem District Tamilnadu Using GIS
    International Journal of Emerging Trends & Technology in Computer Science (IJETTCS) Web Site: www.ijettcs.org Email: [email protected] Volume 5, Issue 3, May-June 2016 ISSN 2278-6856 Water Table Contour For Salem District Tamilnadu using GIS T.Subramani1 , G.Kaliappan2 1Professor & Dean, Department of Civil Engineering, VMKV Engg. College, Vinayaka Missions University, Salem, India 2PG Student Of Environmental Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, VMKV Engg. College, Vinayaka Missions University, Salem, India Abstract less permeable soils, such as tight bedrock formations and Water table contour lines (or flow lines) are similar to historic lakebed deposits, the water table may be more topographic lines on a map. They essentially represent difficult to define.(Figure.1) "elevations" in the subsurface. These elevations are the hydraulic head. Water table contour lines can be used to tell which way groundwater will flow in a given region. Lots of wells are drilled and hydraulic head is measured in each one. Water table contours are drawn that join areas of equal head (like "connect-the-dots"!). These water table contours lines are also called equipotential lines. The map of contour lines is called a flow net. Remember: groundwater always moves from an area of higher hydraulic head to an area of lower hydraulic head, and perpendicular to equipotential lines.In our project we implement concept of water table table contour using gis software which plays vital role in latest technology. Keywords: Water Table, Contour, Salem District, Tamilnadu 1. INTRODUCTION The water table is the surface where the water pressure head is equal to the atmospheric pressure (where gauge pressure = 0).
