Steps for Creating a Ground Water Concentration Heat Map
Below are the steps to follow to create the map
- Open Map Analysis
- From Add Upload, Upload Vector Files
- Upload the shapefiles containing points of Groundwater
The data used here is just for demonstration purposes only. Actual Data may vary.
- Name your Map using the Edit icon next to the Current name above the Layer Panel
- From Style Data, click on Heatmaps
- Select the layer
- Change the opacity and radius of the heatmap
- Choose the Attribute of GroundWater Concentration
- Click Save Style
A simple and interactive heatmap of Groundwater Concentration will be created.
The bluish color shows areas with less groundwater and the pinkish colors show the areas with greater groundwater concentration respectively.
The analysis of groundwater concentration using heat maps enables efficient identification of water-rich hotspots and informs targeted remediation strategies.
MAJOR FINDINGS
- Identified Hotspots: Specific locations with elevated groundwater contamination levels were pinpointed, indicating areas needing urgent remediation.
- Spatial Trends: Patterns in groundwater concentration across the study area emerged, guiding future monitoring efforts.
- Land Use Correlation: The analysis revealed a link between groundwater levels and land use activities, underscoring the role of land management in preserving water quality.
BENEFICIAL DOMAIN: Environmental Protection and Public Health
- Environmental Protection: The analysis aids in identifying areas of groundwater contamination, facilitating targeted remediation efforts.
- Public Health: By identifying concentrated areas and trends, the analysis helps protect public health by ensuring access to clean and safe drinking water.
