Abstract

Groundwater vulnerability has become a major issue for the past many years. This study assessed the groundwater vulnerability in the region around Vrishabawathi river, near mylasandra, Bengaluru Urban District. DRASTIC model in a GIS (Geographic Information System) environment was used in this study to generate vulnerability maps. This zone was divided into parts on directional basis and six samples were collected from each zone and tested for various parameters such as pH, total hardness, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, total dissolved oxygen etc. The topographical and hydrological parameters are used to analyze the overall vulnerability of the groundwater in the study area. The longitudes and latitudes of each of the collected samples of groundwater were noted and a spatial map was prepared of the area using ArcGIS and the data was imported. The seven basic parameters considered for the analysis were Depth to water, Net recharge, Aquifer media, Soil media, Topography, Impact of vadose and Hydraulic conductivity. Each of the parameter values were divided into ranges and a rating was allotted to them, higher the rating greater is the extent of vulnerability. Apart from seven topographical and hydrological parameter maps, ten other maps were prepared to analyze the impact of total hardness, total dissolved solvents, pH, BOD, conductivity, alkalinity, DO etc. Each of the spatial maps show the quality of the groundwater with respect to the impact caused due to the considered parameter. A drastic index map was finally prepared, Higher the drastic index, greater is the vulnerability for groundwater pollution.
