Abstract

The Groundwater quality is equally important as that of quantity. Mapping and statistical analysis of groundwater and its quality is of vital important and it is particularly significant where groundwater is primary source of portable water. The present study is focus on spatial and temporal variability. Groundwater quality was prepared using GIS technology and other related maps were prepared from remote sensing data in ArcGIS. The statistical analysis of the water quality data is determined. From the statistical analysis, the groundwater quality is represented and compared with BIS permissible limit to establish their quality. Samples were collected from fifteen locations in the study area. Physio-chemical analysis of ground water samples are done for 2014 at Madurai Tamilnadu Water Authority Department (TWAD) laboratory.
