The two major innovations of Directive 2000/60 / EC are that it now examines a water system at the catchment level and the fact that in addition to the physicochemical and hydro morphological parameters, biological parameters are also examined to assess the ecological quality of water. Pursuant to article 6 of Directive 2000/60 / EC, Member States are required to establish a register of areas in river basin districts under specific provisions of Community legislation on surface and groundwater protection and on the conservation of habitats and dependent species directly from the water. These registers include all water systems used or to be used for pumping for human consumption (Article 7). In this study, an electronic database (EDB) is created to record water drillings to meet water supply needs under Directive 2000/60 / EC and a pilot application to the Nestos river basin using the Geographic Information Systems.
