Abstract
The main aim of given the project is to study worldwide commercialized datamanagement software systems and to choice the most suitable software for an experimental storing and management of hydrogeological data. As a result of the study, the DBASE III PLUS software package was applied for creation of a hydrogeological database of the Northern Provinces of Vietnam, and the AutoCAD 10.0 was applied for computerization of a standard Hydrogeological Map of Hanoi. During the course of implementation, the scientific staff involved in the project has been gaining good skills and experiences on computer-aided datamanagement. The hydrogeological database created in this project is the unique database of this type in Vietnam and is expected to be supplemented and updated during the following period of an expanded project.
