The Division of Engineering and Water Applications includes three departments:
Water Resources :
-
Surface water for resources; assessment the potentiality and hazards of flood water harvesting, calculating the expected quantities of these floods, mitigations.
-
Identifying groundwater reservoirs, hydrological and hydrogeological mapping and the potentiality of groundwater resources.
-
Conducting studies on the effects of climate change on different water resources.
-
Conduct studies to assess ground and surface water pollution and identifying sources of contaminants and remediation.
-
Establishing digital databases and information systems with GIS for surface and water resources.
-
Create master plans for development in order to strengthen the state's strategic and national plans.
Engineering Applications:
-
Geotechnical and environmental studies and study geo-engineering risks and their impact on the movement of urbanization.
-
Irrigation and hydraulics works and identify the most suitable sites for the canal and drains
-
Assessment and management of road networks to determine land and water use on both sides of road networks.
-
Identify areas of periodic maintenance and their relationship to geological and geomorphological phenomena.
-
Evaluation of alternatives to the supply networks of drinking water.
-
Evaluation of alternatives to the supply networks of drinking water.
Population, Geographical and Archeology :
