Groundwater management gets boost with new tool


The Perth Groundwater map allows you to easily visualise groundwater information within the Perth metropolitan area. Designed to help water-bore drillers, irrigators and private householders establish groundwater bores within the watertable, under the Earth’s surface.

This map is useful for indicating suitable areas for development, measuring depths and indicating groundwater salinity levels for approved groundwater licenses.

Built by NGIS, it is an intuitive and user-friendly map that generates an informative report instantly from any location within the Perth metropolitan area. ESRI technology is at the heart of the solution, providing enterprise storage, analysis, and presentation of land and water layers to develop the application.

Shared and used for a variety of purposes with just a few clicks, it provides a useful communication tool for supporting and monitoring the state’s growth in water sustainable practices.

  • Why Planet isn’t your old-school Earth observation provider

    When most people think of Earth Observation (EO), they think of complex systems, long lead times, and imagery that’s already out of date by the time it’s delivered. Historically, satellite data has been the domain of specialists, slow to access, expensive to use, and challenging to scale. Planet takes a different approach. Built for speed, accessibility, and insight, Planet provides a fundamentally more agile Earth Observation capability. It’s designed to meet the needs of decision-makers, analysts, and operations teams who don’t just want data; they want answers, quickly.
