INFORMATION SYSTEM
National Groundwater Information System (NGIS) is a portfolio of projects designed to meet increasing demands for groundwater information in a
rapidly changing water business environment. The system will be
distributed among regional offices and will integrate both spatial and
non-spatial data and information. It also accommodates increased
visualization and analytical functionality.Portfolio of the NGIS project includes several subprojects. Amongst the
most important are REGIS Africa and National Groundwater Archive. The
later one is a relational database management system that is to replace
the Open-NGDB, mainframe based database of mainly boreholes and data related
to them.
See also information on Primary Data Archive (PRIDA)
and Geosite Viewer.

STANDARD
BOREHOLE DESCRIPTORS
Long
awaited documentation that is attempting to standardise the way the
data related to groundwater, and boreholes in particular is
available for general perusal. Substantial amount of work is behind
the pages that can now be downloaded for daily reference. The
project that generated the document
was enabled thanks to generous support of the NORAD, the Norwegian
Agency for the Development Cooperation.
