Irrigation Source Registry datasets

About Dataset

The National Irrigation Source Registry is a dataset that catalogues irrigation sources, including lakes and rivers, with their corresponding unique codes. This dataset is crucial for water resource management, planning, and decision-making. It is primarily designed for use by government agencies, researchers, and policymakers who need accurate and up-to-date information on irrigation sources. The dataset can be used to identify areas with potential for irrigation development, assess water availability, and inform policy decisions related to water resource management. It can also be used by farmers, agricultural researchers, and environmental scientists to understand the importance of irrigation sources in supporting agricultural productivity and ecosystem health. Additionally, this dataset can be used in urban planning to identify areas with potential for irrigation-based urban agriculture and to inform decisions related to water resource allocation. The dataset's scope is national, covering various types of irrigation sources across the country.
