The second edition of GIS in Water Resource Engineering, thoroughly revised and updated, presents a comprehensive review of the concepts and applications of GIS in various scenarios from surface water and groundwater to wastewater and river basin planning. State-of-the-art GIS spatial data management and analysis tools are revolutionizing the field of water resource engineering, so familiarity with these technologies is now a prerequisite for success in engineers’ and planners’ efforts to create reliable infrastructure. This book develops a broad-spectrum understanding of the nature of GIS and how it is used to create, analyze, and incorporate geographic data into water resources engineering practices. 
New in the Second Edition:

• New GIS technologies and methods used in water engineering domains such as remote sensing for surface and groundwater monitoring and integration of high-resolution land use and property data.
• A new chapter on GIS Management for Water Resources includes GIS planning and implementation approaches, and financial analysis of benefits and costs.
• New case studies describing applications of GIS for water resources monitoring, assessments and decision making.
• Incorporation of content and discussion regarding advances in applications of artificial intelligence in GIS technologies and methods.

This book is intended for water resources professionals, managers, and researchers who are seeking updated information on geospatial techniques and technologies to guide their modelling approaches and applications. It is also an excellent resource for senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses that cover topics such as water resources, watershed management, water quality, advanced spatial and GIS modelling, etc.
