• To manage the available precious water

potential to the optimum, SWaRMA has come

out with a strong e-Governance tool, with inter-

Sectorial common data base which will be a GIS

based web enabled one.

• Apart from hydro-Metrological data, Water

potential, Sectorial Demand, and Theme

Layers, the numerically coded tank information

as well as details of Water Users Association

and PIM which have gathered momentum have

also been incorporated in this web enabled GIS

Based Data Base.

• This data base will help in decision making

for efficient integrated water resources

management and regulation for better

service delivery. This data base is a

comprehensive solution for accessing water

data, capable of geo-visualization and will

help the administrators with e-Governance

tool in the management and Basin planning

of water resources and in taking Tamil Nadu

forward to optimise the utilisation of

created irrigation potential and to maximise

crop production per unit of water.

• Taking into consideration the sustainability

and scope for improvising the data Base from

time to time to match to the state of art of

the subject this GIS based web enabled data

base has been created using the available

open source soft-wares, in-house by TN

SWaRMA,.

• Government bodies can have factual data on

water from this Web GIS interface, that can be

used for decision making.

• Maps and other non-spatial data related to

many themes and parameters, collated from

many departments and presented on a

centralised and common platform for use by

all concerned. This efficient sharing

mechanism will keep everyone abreast with

latest information. Data query, charting, and

visualization will enhance the analytical

depth, for providing rational and timely

service to the public at large.
