Proverbs 3 Properties

Very nice

To see how good the water is

Center Achievements · The Water Resources Unit publishes 8 research in scientific journals classified, and one research in non-classified scientific journal, during the period 1432 --1,435 e. Atlas of water information was produced for the valleys of Makkah Al-Mukarramah region. The establishment of a research group interested in studying water resources and development and developed under the name of the research group of water resources (WRRG). It has been set up digital map heights. (DEM) for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia A database for rain distribution is being established for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Obtaining support for a number of research projects from King Abdulaziz University and other supportive bodies. Create a climate database Was completed about 70% of the collection and recording and analysis of daily and monthly rainfall data scattered throughout the Kingdom, by 40 station data rain daily for a time period ranging from 15 to 45 years and 80 rain data monthly station for a time period ranging from 25 to 30 years, was the work of Statistical analyzes of this data, as well as calculating the frequency and probability of rain. Create digital map database About 70% of geological, topographic, rain and torrential data were scanned and digital coordinates established. Create a digital elevation model The completion of the construction of three-dimensional models of the phenomena of terrain known as model digital height (Digital Elevation Model - DEM) scale analysis of 30 meters, has been more work than 320 digital model height covering all parts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which gives a great importance in the process of cognition and visual analysis spatial maps of topography, as well as in the completion of various statistical processes of geographic data (spatial) and the accuracy of the spatial and descriptive statistical analysis that is difficult to be supplied manually, as can the geographical distribution representation of different phenomena in a three-dimensional animated and easy to understand forms. Setup to create the Atlas hydrogeological series For the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and includes thematic maps for surface water (torrents) and groundwater. The completion of the Atlas of the hydrological properties of the valleys of Mecca. And it is being prepared for the establishment of Atlas hydrological properties of the valleys of Jazan. Building a Geographic Information Systems Laboratory (GIS) This lab is computer-based and the goal of its establishment is to collect, store, analyze, produce, and distribute spatial, temporal, and descriptive data. It will be used for specific goals in helping planning and decision-making with regard to water resources, agriculture, urban planning and the expansion of housing, in addition to reading the infrastructure of any city by creating the so-called classes. This system enables us to enter geographic information (maps, aerial photos, satellite visualizations) and descriptive (names and tables), process them (edit them wrongly), store, retrieve, query, analyze them spatially and statistically, and display them on a computer screen or on paper in the form of Maps, reports, and graphics, or through the website. It will use this lab in the training of researchers and students in the fields of various private water resources and agriculture. Furnishing and equipping the center with some equipment field measurements of water resources, such as: Field navigation devices (GPS) to record the location coordinates Groundwater level measuring devices Devices to collect groundwater samples from wells Salinity and pH meters for water samples in the field
