India Water Policy Envisaged - A well-developed standardized National Information System comprising
network of databanks and databases, Improving the quality of data
and processing capabilities and Promoting free exchange of data
among the various user agencies. To Achieve the above objectives
the concept of building a Hydrological Information System (HIS)
mooted under World Bank Aided Hydrology Project and a need for developing
a Dedicated Software for Ground Water Data Processing Centers felt.
The Dedicated software
so developed for ground water data processing centers of CGWB and
State Ground Water Organization was named as Ground Water Estimation
and Management System
(GEMS). The software has been developed by
M/S Tata Infotech Limited and the domain specific knowledge was
provided by the Central
Ground Water Board, State Ground
Water Agencies, DHV Delft Consultants & National Informatics
Center.
The
GEMS is Modular Software adjustable to the requirement at the level
of office, Various module have been customized as per users requirement
to form integrated software. The software has got 4 modules namely,
Basic module, Groundwater Assessment Module, GIS Module & Advanced
GIS Module. The software is fully integrated with GIS layers.
The software
is Capable of Data Entry/editing, Entry Checks/validation, Comprehensive
Data Processing, Statistical Analysis, Data Retrieval, Reporting,
Graphic/map Outputs, Data Transfer & Dissemination, Data Security
and Backup facility in respect of Water Level, Water Quality, Hydromet,
Geophysics, Exploratory Details.
