Monitoring studies are inevitable in terms of ensuring the
sustainability of irrigation, creating of awareness related to environmental
impact, interfering and taking of measures if necessary besides efficient using
water in irrigation applying. Furthermore, monitoring and evaluation studies
are very important from the point of providing a basis for scientific
researches on scenarios of climate change, drought, sea level rise in coastal
areas by creating numerical analysis models of irrigation operation works. The
one of the most important activities of irrigation operation phase is
monitoring water table. The objective of this study is to assess the change  of water table depth and groundwater salinity
for the years  2003, 2008 and 2013. In
this study, the data obtained from water table monitoring works in an
irrigation project operated is evaluated by using Geographic Information
Systems which provide efficient and rapid assessment and recommendations are
presented.
