eGEMS A Dedicated Web Based System for Ground Water Data Processing Analysis and Storage

GEMS - Background  During the Hydrology Project, Phase I, CGWB developed a Dedicated G round Water Estimation and Management System (GEMS) Software  Data entry & data validation  Processing and analysis  GEMS was developed in a client server environment  Integration of GIS, database & other software  It handled a large amount of data,  Originating from about 25,000 manually monitored wells,  About 6000 wells equipped with automatic water level recorders  Exploratory wells etc.

GEMS - Issues  Required Complex installation and configuration  High Database and of IT Expertise by the users.  Dependencies on specific hardware, system software and operating system.  Difficulty in upgrading or changing modular components.  Upgrading GIS software to current version of MapInfo.  Complexity in import and integration of data from  Different instances of GEMS  Other data management systems.  Limited installation not possible as per user levels  Full range of GEMS functionality need to be installed  Wide range of options for small office user

eGEMS - Concept  During Hydrology Project Phase II- It was envisaged to replicate the existing GEMS capabilities into a internet based  Platform independent  Highly reliable  Lesser user intervention  For CGWB and 13 participating Hydrology Project Phase –II State Ground Water Agencies  The Contract for the development of eGEMS application has been awarded to M/S TCS, Gurgoan

eGEMS - Outlines  Internet based platform independent system  Client access from web browsers  No software requirement at user end – Web browser and internet access needed  Single, centralized data store for databases.  Scalable to user requirement
