Abstract

Geographic information system (GIS) has got much attention nowadays in soil and water resource management because of its versatility in analysing and visualizing data from a variety of sources that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, reports, and charts. It helps in monitoring natural resources, managing land use, and assessing environmental impacts. Most of the time we will be making point observations to monitor our natural resources and GIS will help us to make these observations to continuous surface maps which will help us to get a comprehensive idea about the spatiotemporal variations of the parameter under consideration. The following maps will help to understand how the surface maps better represent the spatial variations in the field.
