Analisis Distribusi Tingkat Resapan Air Tanah di Kecamatan Bukit Raya Kota Pekanbaru

Abstract

Water was a very important component for our life on this earth. The existence of water on earth
was limited by space and time. The purpose of this study was to analysis of the distribution of
the soil water infiltration rate in the district of Bukit Raya Pekanbaru. Data used in the form
of data from the measurement points coordinates, soil resistivity and lithology. The level of
ground water absorption measured by coordinate points as much 20 points. The next, data
obtained input into the sofware “surfer 11” to be processed in order to obtain a contour map
soil water infiltration rate. The results showed that the highest value of catchment located in
the village of Simpang Tiga in the amount of 119968,14 m3/year, where as the value of the
lowest ground catchment located in the village of North Tangkerang that was 10054,47
m3/year. Conclusion, the catchment area of land affected by open land and soil lithology.
