USE OF GIS TECHNOLOGIES IN THE ESTIMATION OF THE QUALITY OF UNDERGROUND WATER OF THE REPUBLIC OF NORTH OSSETIA-ALANIA

Abstract

The aim of this work was to create a GIS project that includes groundwater monitoring data through the territory of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania. Geoinformation systems are characterized by a powerful potential for constructing spatial models, as well as the possibilities of spatial and non-spatial analysis of the data, with the help of which one or other important regularities inherent in this monitoring object are revealed. On the basis of the revealed regularities, the indicators describing the dynamics of changes in the process or phenomenon in time and space are determined. The use of GIS for groundwater will enable us to solve the problems of assessing the state of a given object in operation and the compliance of this state with the requirements of norms, standards and license conditions, developing recommendations for the rational exploitation of groundwater and preventing or mitigating the negative consequences of groundwater abstraction, as well as technogenic impact on them, assessing the effectiveness of measures for the rational use of groundwater and their protection from depletion and pollution, etc., which accelerates and increases the efficiency The effectiveness of the procedure for making decisions of current problems by power structures.
