Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

In the present study, the groundwater quality was tested around the Gandhinagar sub-watershed covering a neighborhood of 53.63 sq. km, which lies between north latitudes 12°46′ and 13°58′ and east longitudes 77°21′ and 78°35′ within the state of Karnataka, India. For the study, data collection includes maps, toposheets, water quality data, well locations, village locations, etc. The above-said data has been collected from various government departments of Karnataka. After the data collection, the base map was prepared using ArcMap. The water samples have been tested and then used as an attribute database to design thematic maps showing various water quality parameters.
