Abstract
GeoMedia, a Geographic Information System (GIS), was used to design an irrigation network in eastern Arkansas. The objective of using this geographic information system is to insure that irrigation water can be delivered to each farmland (or tract) and to determine the design flow of each irrigation pipe. To demonstrate the capacity of this GIS, a pilot site was selected in eastern Arkansas. This preliminary investigation showed that the geographic information system is a simple, efficient, and easy to operate. The final implementation of this methodology has been considered for a large-scale application.
