Groundwater Data Collection and Analysis in Baharia Oasis

Groundwater is considered as one of the main resources especially in remote area. The ground water samples are taken from different areas in the study area (Baharia Oasis). Groundwater samples have been analyzed in specialized water quality lab. It was noticed that the iron concentration percentage is higher than the standard limit in most of areas. Using Geographic Information System, the percentage of iron concentration in different unknown areas could be predicted. The results showed that min iron concentration is 0.07 mg/l and the max is 10.5 mg/l. It is recommended to apply an oxidation process in different wells and predict the others using the same process to provide people with safe and sustain drinking water.
