DSS Development

CALCULATION OF CROPWAT ET0

Extraction of 5 parameters for CROPWAT

Data Preparation of Karnal and Hisar sites for three years.
ET Computation

Decision Support System for the Western Yamuna Canal Command

The Three Layers that will go into the making of the DSS are as follows:
Presentation Layer: A Graphical User Interface which would be menu driven
where in the end user will have the option of computing various parameters .
Business Layer: This is where all the processing will be done at the back end.
Database Layer: Spatial Querying will be performed and the data will be
fetched from the Geodatabase. Spatial Data will be displayed accordingly.

DSS Framework and its interface using .NET Framework

The Flowchart of how the DSS is going to Process:

Start

Enter the value of ET0 (CROPWAT ET) or ETA

(SEBAL ET)

Calculate CWR(Crop Water

Requirement) CWR =ET*Kc

Calculate Irrigation Water

Requirement using the formula
IR= CWR-ER-S

Demand-Supply Gap

Ground Water
Quality Good
Irrigation Schedules
Ground Water
Quality Poor

Crop Salinity Model

(Crop Yield)

REVIEW SEMINAR

Modules:
New Modules viz : Water Module ,Soil module ,Rainfall module Area of
Interest have been added in the menu bar
Theme and Layout :
The Theme and the Layout of the GUI have also been changed .
Spatial Data Display:
Area Of Interest is the tab in the menu bar that takes the end user to the
Command area Map where in there are tools available : Zoom in ,Zoom
out and Panning etc.

Integration of CROPWAT 8.0

Integrated the third party software i.e. CROPWAT 8.0 in our DSS
Application .
The End User can calculate the value of ET0 right with in the
application.

Spatial Data Display:

For displaying Spatial Data with in our Application .The Software we
are considering are ArcGIS engine and an Open Source Software :
MapWindowGIS

Open Source GIS Software :MapWindowGIS

What is MapWindowGIS :
The MapWindow application is a free, extensible, geographic
information system (GIS) that can be used:
As an alternative desktop GIS
To distribute data to others
To develop and distribute custom spatial data analyses

MapWindow is free to use and redistribute to the clients and other end
users.
