Özet
Among the groundwater resources in Turkey, there are quite important basins with their agricultural land use characteristics and ecological characteristics. One of them, Konya Closed Basin (KCB), along with its sub-basins, has Turkey's grain reserves. However, over the last years, over-exploitation of groundwater resources, water-level reductions have become a threat to the ecological structure of the sinkholes and the basin. In order for this process to be analysed with all its causes and measures can be taken, it is necessary to monitor and record the changes that are experienced. In this context, Geographical Information System (GIS) is important as a system that can demonstrate the change in the basin. In this study, the change of groundwater level was investigated with the help of GIS, in order to protect the ecological balance in the KCB Altınekin Basin, where significant decreases in groundwater level have been experienced in recent years. The change in the data of 2015 and 2016, which was obtained from 10 water wells where the groundwater level in this basin was identified, was analysed with the aid of GIS. It has been found that the groundwater level in the basin changes with agricultural land use characteristics, daily use, and climatic changes.
