Data-driven models in different fields of water Inflow is one of the dynamic driving factors in water resources with [7,8,9] can be modeled effectively for water management. So accurate inflow forecasting is necessary for management. At the same time, researchers have realized effective water management. complex nature of relationship between rainfall and runoff For inflow forecasting various methods are used by researchers. so various complex models are introduced like fuzzy logic Among them Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average [10], support vector regression [11], and Artificial Neural (ARIMA) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) techniques are Networks (ANN) [6,12].

Preface Dear reader, Less than three years ago I started studying Hydrology at the VU University Amsterdam, never imagining that I would end up studying Watermanagement at the Technical University here, in Delft. But here I am. Fortunately this unwanted change lead to an awesome new journey. I have been able to finish all the exams and confronted all the challenges that came along, especially while writing my thesis. I became good friends with Python, which was my biggest challenge and eventually victory. A thesis is one big confrontation with yourself and requires most of all perseverance, that is best sustained by an encouraging environment. There- fore I want to thank my tutor Saket Pande for his patience, guidance and persistence during this year. Bannie, Swoep, Stinkie, Maggie, the rest of the family, and friends for the mental support and encouragements when needed.

  • 6. Water Quality ------61 6.1 Surface Water Quality Observations ------61 6.2 Ground Water Quality Observations ------62 7
    Version 2.0 Krishna Basin Preface Optimal management of water resources is the necessity of time in the wake of development and growing need of population of India. The National Water Policy of India (2002) recognizes that development and management of water resources need to be governed by national perspectives in order to develop and conserve the scarce water resources in an integrated and environmentally sound basis. The policy emphasizes the need for effective management of water resources by intensifying research efforts in use of remote sensing technology and developing an information system. In this reference a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on December 3, 2008 between the Central Water Commission (CWC) and National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to execute the project “Generation of Database and Implementation of Web enabled Water resources Information System in the Country” short named as India-WRIS WebGIS. India-WRIS WebGIS has been developed and is in public domain since December 2010 (www.india- wris.nrsc.gov.in). It provides a ‘Single Window solution’ for all water resources data and information in a standardized national GIS framework and allow users to search, access, visualize, understand and analyze comprehensive and contextual water resources data and information for planning, development and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Basin is recognized as the ideal and practical unit of water resources management because it allows the holistic understanding of upstream-downstream hydrological interactions and solutions for management for all competing sectors of water demand. The practice of basin planning has developed due to the changing demands on river systems and the changing conditions of rivers by human interventions.
