The excessive use of groundwater for domestic, industrial, and intensive irrigation purposes in many parts of our globe has emerged as a critical concern for water resource management. This overexploitation has led to severe consequences such as the depletion of water bodies, intrusion of saltwater, aquifer depletion, and groundwater contamination. Reports indicate that the groundwater table in several regions of our country is decreasing at an alarming rate of 1-2 meters per year. Addressing these challenges requires immediate action and the adoption of advanced technologies tailored to effectively investigate and mitigate water sector issues. Geophysical methods offer promising solutions for exploring shallow to deep aquifers, monitoring saltwater intrusion, and detecting groundwater pollution!
To enhance understanding and application of these technologies, we are organizing a workshop focused on Time Domain Electromagnetic (TEM) survey, Resistivity Imaging data, and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data acquisition, processing, and analysis. This workshop is designed to provide groundwater exploration professionals with comprehensive training in both field operations and software-based data processing.
