GIS-technologies in hydrogeology facilitate transformation of methods of cartographic works. At the same time, it is necessary to provide methodological recommendations and guidelines for presentation of geographical features on the digital hydrogeological maps. The hydrogeological maps are constructed on the results of the hydrogeological research with due consideration of geological conditions of the region, aquifers and aquifer systems, aquicludes, linear structural elements and other data. This article is abou...

A hydrogeological map is a cartographic model reflecting the structure, regularities of formation and spread of gravity underground water. Traditionally, cartographic data on hydrogeology are presented as a rule in hard copies or in formats of graphic editors. Another large part of cartographic data is presented in the formats MapInfo and ArcGIS, which does not meet criteria identifying their belonging to up-to-date information systems, and as consequence, limit digital processing of data and its spatial analysis....
