Entwicklung eines Wasserwirtschaftlichen Fachinformationssystems Grundwasser für Schleswig-Holstein

Abstract

Schleswig-Holstein develops a specialist information system for the water economy (WaFIS). The first available modul is WaFIS Ground Water. Its development has three main targets: 1. Build a reliable and complete ground water data base, 2. support the district and state water authorities at their daily work, 3. create a well defined data exchange between water works and water authorities. The water authorities are supported at administration of their ground water measuring points. Technical and geographical data, ground water levels and quality can be stored and visualized. Both geographical and measuring data can be graphically edited. The district water authorities are supported at water inspection, for example at checks of water works for the amount of taken ground water or for chemical parameters, or at analyzation of damages with dangerous materials. The state water authorities are supported at statistics of water supply service and at planning of ground water protection areas.
