Exploration of Ground Water in NIT Valley by Electrical Resistivity Method

Abstract

The project report underlines the survey work carried in Feb 2010 in order to tap ground water in order to cater to need the increasing demand of water for domestic and other uses by the NIT Rourkela. Based on the survey results drilling operations were carried out at proposed point incorporating Rotary percussion method and measurement of discharge was done. The survey work was carried out with the help of Ashida electrical resistivity method and the results obtained through the survey work were coherent with the actual findings obtained through drilling operations.
