Qualitative Characteristics of Groundwater and its Role in Agricultural Development in the Eastern region of Maysan Governorate, using Geographical inFormation Systems (GIS)

The research aims to study the qualitative characteristics of groundwater wells in the eastern region of Maysan Governorate, which has an area of (7397) km2. Through the research, the chemical properties of groundwater and its spatial distribution have been identified using geographic information systems (GIS), which can be used to invest these waters Wells in agricultural development according to the results of the analyzes that showed their suitability for agricultural purposes, as the quality of this water increases quality as we go from the southeast to the northwest due to the presence of the third time formations in the areas of the northern wells that contain a small percentage of dissolved salts while these concentrations increase In the regions of the fourth time formations.
