The main scope of study is summarised below.
Compilation of existing data (exploration, geophysical, ground water level and ground water quality with geo-referencing information and identification of principal aquifer units.
Periodic long-term monitoring of ground water regime (for water levels and water quality) for creation of time series data base and ground water resource estimation.
Quantification of ground water availability and assessing its quality.
To delineate aquifer in 3-D along with its characterization on 1:50,000 scale.
Capacity building in all aspects of ground water extraction and management through information, education and communication (IEC) activities, information, dissemination, education and awareness and training.
Enhancement of coordination with concerned central/state govt. organizations and academic/research institutions for sustainable ground water management.
