2 SESSION TITLE: Section Mapping SECTION: Understanding the Resource MODULE: III. Springshed Mapping AUTHORS: Dr Himanshu Kulkarni CONTRIBUTING ORGANIZATIONS: ACWADAM PURPOSE: To be able to understand geology through strikes & dips, sections, classifying GPS points on Google maps and contour mapping. IMPACT: Participants will be familiar with plotting geologic sections, adding geology through Google maps and interpreting strikes and dips of the geology to define recharge and discharge areas. TIME REQUIRED: 90 minutes MATERIALS: This ppt, tracing paper, graph paper, scale, protractor, printed maps, box model ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:

3 Outline: How to take strike & dip Using strike and dip in the valley to valley approach Understanding drainage and geology through Google maps To plot a section through contour mapping Use sections to construct 3-D layout and geologic layouts Creating vertical profiles from transects Making 3D layouts & oblique views

5 The Watershed Watershed-Model Here is an example spring and springshed from the Himalayas Groundwater Model Spring

6 Springs : a valley to valley approach We explored the area to determine where recharge was occurring Spring outlet

7 Springs : a valley to valley approach Field surveys showed evidence of layers of rock sloping toward the spring outlet Spring outlet

8 Springs : a valley to valley approach We could reasonably assume that recharge was occurring in the valley above the spring where water would infiltrate and migrate down the rock beds to emerge as a spring Spring outlet Spring outlet

9 Springs : a valley to valley approach We could reasonably assume that recharge was occurring in the valley above the spring where water would infiltrate and migrate down the rock beds to emerge as a spring Spring outlet

10 Springs : a valley to valley approach Further surveys found another spring. But this one was near a large and obvious fault. Did the water come from the same place as the first spring? Spring 2 outlet Spring outlet

11 Springs : a valley to valley approach Rocks here was sloping in a different direction than at the first spring Spring 2 outlet Spring outlet

12 Springs : a valley to valley approach So we could assume that the recharge areas were thus: Spring 2 outlet Spring outlet

13 Springs : a valley to valley approach And when the surveys continued along the mountain, yet another recharge area was discovered

14 Springs : a valley to valley approach Must move beyond ridge to valley Recharge areas do not follow surface topography Must map the geology So how do we do that?

15 Trends : Strike and Dip Methods for mapping position and attitude of rocks, formations and structure

16 Trends : Strike and Dip Strike the compass direction of where the feature intersects a horizontal plane Dip the direction and degrees from the horizontal plane

17 Trends : Strike and Dip Strike the compass direction of where the feature intersects a horizontal plane Dip the direction and degrees from the horizontal plane
