Abstract
Monitoring the quality of surface water is an
important step towards sustainability of water resources.
Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS) is an opensource desktop application which is used for editing and
analysing geospatial data. This study aims to develop a QGIS
plugin named Lake Ecosystem Tool to monitor the health
condition of a lake in terms of water quality index, trophic state
index, hazard quotient, aerial water spread and volumetric
change and the same can be used as a planning tool for the
sustainable management of existing water bodies.
