Water Resource Management

Water is an essential component for the survival of mankind and for balancing the ecosystem and livelihood. The world is experiencing a scarcity of water, both in terms of quality and quantity. Although there are several in-situ measurement techniques, they seem insufficient for large areas involving several parameters. Analysis of satellite images for estimating the quality and quantity of natural water has become an accepted tool for better spatial planning. With the increase in variety, volume, and velocity of satellite image, a tool for faster and accurate processing of the data is needed. Google Earth Engine (GEE) is one such cloud-based geo-big data platform. This chapter reviews the work of several researchers worldwide who have used and demonstrated the capability of satellite images with other geo-big data such as elevation, landcover, etc. for water resource management on the GEE platform. It can be concluded from the review work that GEE can help in estimating the water quality parameters with reasonable accuracy, comparable to the in-situ measurement, albeit quickly.
