Chennai becomes the first Indian city to have a comprehensive automatic groundwater monitoring system.200 Automatic GW level recorders (1 in every ward), 20 Rain gauges have been installed (1 each in 15 zones & 5 lakes) by @CHN_Metro_Water. A video explaining how it works -
One can select his location out of the 200 locations and can have a real-time record of Ground water levels in his locality.
Also reports of longitudinal GW data of a particular location over the selected time period can be downloaded. Historical GW data dating back to 1987 can also be retrieved.
Similarly, real-time rainfall data and historical data from 1965 & daily lake levels can be accessed from the portal. In summary, this is a milestone in the country in quantifying the water cycle and also making information accessible to the citizens. @CGWB_CHQ @JalShaktiAbhyan
