The HydroGIS Lab project (http://cyprusremotesensing.com/hydrogis/) aims to satisfy the dire need for authorities to solve the extremely serious problem of water supply as a result of continued water shortage. The chronic problems of water losses in the water supply network pipes, the uncontrolled and non-optimum operation of pumping stations, the incorrect design of the networks…

Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) are among the near-surface geophysical methods that are suitable for mapping the subsurface. As with all the geophysical methods, the ability of ERT and GPR methods to provide images of buried structures relies on the contrast of soil properties. The former provides images of the subsurface…

The decrease of water availability is a major global problem that is increasing in intensity. Since water resources have been substantially reduced over the past years, control over water distribution is now considered imperative. For this reason, water supply networks are more closely monitored and significant efforts are made to reduce the effects of leakages….

The problem of water leakages Water is a daily necessary resource for life, health, economic development and the ecosystem all over the world. As water is precious to everyone, its availability and quality are essential. Climate change, droughts, water shortages and population growth are increasing the strain on existing water resources, thereby increasing the necessity…
