Abstract

Today, the need for treated and quality water is evident, since the diseases acquired depend on 80% of the water we consume, just as environmental sanitation is of great importance. Hence, the importance of being able to access information that will serve as a basis for decision-making and in this way provide an excellent service and ability. With regard to the information generated and the access that can be had to it, it has been seen (to take advantage of new technologies such as Geographic Information Systems; 10 which allows users of the applications (managers, managers and specialized personnel ), Access to information by means of the consuttas and visualization of space information (so that it can be reached at the appropriate decision-making level.) At present, the information available to the managers and authorities of a given government (Eg, in the case of a municipality, the most distant communities are left unattended), on the other hand, through geographic information systems and the use of space information ( , Is linked (to information from geo-referenced maps, which allows a better perception of reality. By using geo-referenced maps and the linking of spatial information (from a given geographic area it is intended to develop A system to visualize maps, maintain spatial information in detail of the sites under study, consult and visualize information on maps of: potable water systems, piped water, sanitary relays, wastewater and potential contaminated sites Contaminants.
