Cadastro e mapeamento de poços tubulares do Município de Campina das Missões/RS

Abstract

Water is important to life on the planet, and it is a basic input for most of the economical activities. Water occurs in the nature in quantities, but it is extremely vulnerable to the qualitative degradation. This work aims at rising and regestering tubular wells in order to get and spatialize hydrodynamic information and to evaluate the vulnerability of water source in Campina das Missões, at the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul (Brasil). Some data were obtained from the web page of Information System Groundwaters and others data were obtained from fieldwork, by the use of GPS (Global Position System) and from at Campina das Missões Municipal Hall. These data were transformed in digital medium, tabulated and spatialized in SPRING and SURFER 8 software, under a cartogram form, based on the GOD method (Foster; Hirata 1993; Foster et al. 2003). One of the monitoring and the generation of a vulnerability cartogram, which made possible the identification of the most liable places to contamination, sited in the south of the municipal district, in the urbana area. This way, this study contributes for the plannig of Campina das Missões, because, once it is known the most liable areas to contamination, it is possible to choose the most apprpriate areas for the instalation of sanitary embankment, gas stations, car-washes, industrial areas and tubular wells.
