Abstract

A relational data base has been designed to cover the hydrological and meteorological information of Greece on a nationwide basis. This paper deals with the part concering Groundwater Hydrology and Hydrogeology. A system is presented for the search and retrieval of this information. The software has been developed using the W4GL of the Ingres DBMS and runs in workstations under Unix X-Windows. The ultimate goal of developing the data base is to acquire a tool for groundwater management. However, there are no specific defined policies in that area, although the nature of the problems is known.
