Native QGIS geological model setup for Africa addressing groundwater scarcity and resilience against climate change
09-09, 11:30–12:00 (Europe/Bratislava), B320

This work explores use of QGIS with structured data, geometry generators, QGIS 2D-profile and 3D-window in addressing groundwater scarcity in Africa. Groundwater serves as a crucial resource for communities across Africa, offering resilience against climate change using QGIS helps understanding subsurface structures and identify local aquifers.
This presentation leverages QGIS visualization of geology and aquifers, enabling a more nuanced understanding of available resources. By integrating diverse datasets of geological, geophysical and chemical data into a coherent data structure, our approach facilitates the understanding of groundwater distribution, potential scarcity zones and places for acquisition of new boreholes.
