Abstract
On large territories defining a site of groundwater with a similar chemical composition using a wide range of chemical elements and compounds (10 or more) is a rather complicated task. We have suggested a new way based on applying cluster analysis. Using this method gives an opportunity to find groundwater with a similar chemical composition in different areas and underground reservoirs. This method has been tested in the study of the chemical composition of the groundwater of the Shiraz and the Khorramabad basins, Iran.
