This document discusses integrated water resource management (IWRM) and quantitative methods for assessing groundwater resources using remote sensing and GIS. IWRM is defined as a systematic process for sustainably developing, allocating, and monitoring water resources considering social, economic and environmental objectives. Key aspects of IWRM planning include addressing water scarcity, degradation, policy frameworks, long-term planning, sector coordination, supply and demand assessments, and information systems. Quantitative groundwater assessment methods consider parameters like lithology, aquifer geometry, climate, and remote sensing can provide regional data to complement traditional point-based methods. Modeling involves formulating models, computations, applications and evaluation.
