Abstract

Emerging contaminants are substances that in recent years have been identified and quantified more frequently in different types of water, due to the environmental, ecological, and public health impact they generate. They are characterized by their low concentrations, which makes their detection costly and specialized. For this reason, in developed countries, there are monitoring and follow-up programs, while in Latin American countries they are just beginning to be detected without a defined schedule or frequency. This article presents the design and application of a computational tool called CE plugin, which is a QGIS software plugin, written in Python code, this tool aims to be technical support for the determination of emerging contaminants in industrial sectors, through an identification associated with the type of business sector and the production processes that are carried out, at the same time can link with the cadastre of sanitary networks and identify possible sampling points. As a result of the plugin, there is a step-by-step guide for its use and a case study carried out in the city of Bogota.
