ABSTRACT. - The importance of technical infrastructure in territory. Case study:
drinking water supply in Dāngău Mare, Cluj County. Water represents an important
element in life. Accessibility, water quantity and quality show the standard of
living of one community. This article presents a case study, the one of water
supply in Dāngău Mare from Cluj County. The purpose of this analysis is to
reveal the benefits of applying some measures regarding water supply in the
rural area, as well as the dysfunction abilities which derive from a bad
management (eg. lack of sewage system). Dāngău Mare lies near the Gilău
Mountains and possesses important and rich resources of surface and underground
waters varying under qualitative ratio. The hydrological resources of Dāngău
Mare are made up of river/rivulet networks (Mireş, Blidaru, Agārbiciu), phreatic
waters and natural springs. The identification and delimitation of the Dāngău
Mare territory represents the first stage of this study, followed by the
consultation of bibliographic and cartographic sources, field surveys, to obtain
the qualitative and quantitative pieces of information. The second stage
consists in the analyzation and classification of information, the integrated
study of phenomena and elaboration of cartographic models using GIS. At the end
of this study we have made the SWOT analysis to emphasize the characteristics of
favourability, the anomalies and the opportunities to improve and develop the
territory of Dāngău Mare from Cluj County.
