More and more data of groundwater quantity and quality is acquired and exists. The means to collect it (GPRS, Radio, IoT…) have been developed during the last years. Storing this data is not a problem. But, having a mean to have all the different data gathered in the same platform with the possibility to display and analyse them in a simple and rapid way doesn’t exist enough. A web application has been developed to answer this problem. This application enables to store all type of groundwater data (water table elevation, groundwater quality, borehole information, water extraction data…) in order to display it. The organisation of this application allows displaying all the data by site. Several tools to analyse the data are included (calculation of hydrogeological parameters, statistics, interpolation) allowing a first data interpretation, in particular for salt water intrusion issues. This web application was born from collaboration between IT experts and environmental engineers.
