Written for engineers and planners, this volume outlines the advanced applications of geographic information systems (GIS) in the sub-fields of water resource engineering. It covers the nature of GIS, how it is used to develop and analyze geographic data, differentiating between types of data and GIS, and summarizing development and database concepts, including primary field-data collection and methods of interpretation of analysis. Johnson (civil engineering, U. of Colorado, Denver) then details concepts and applications in surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology, water supply and irrigation systems, wastewater and stormwater systems, floodplain management, water quality, water resource monitoring and forecasting, and river basin planning and management. Co-published with IWA. IWA in the UK now publishes many reports formerly published by AWWA Research Foundation (Denver). Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
