QUICK ASSESSMENT OF GROUND WATER BY ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY SURVEY

Next to air and food, the other most important requirement for existence of mankind is water. Rapid growth in population and industrial development has made it difficult to survive on existing limited water resources. The complex geological formations have made it difficult to locate the large quantities of quality water resources. The surface water level is rapidly depleting and thus has made us rely more and more on ground water sources. DOWSING is the oldest method that is used to locate the ground water resources.
