Abstract
Analyzing of water quality at Ooty town and to provide clean and safe water. The water quality is analyzed and tabulated in this paper. So we are able to know the quality of water available in the sample taken. The water analyzed about the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of water. It is used to measure the appearance of sample water for the need of living. Water samples are collected from the open well (Latitude and longitude coordinates are 11.410000, 76.699997). The samples were tested for parameters like pH, turbidity, total hardness, fluoride, dissolved oxygen, ammonia nitrogen, chemical oxygen demand, acidity, and alkalinity. The values which are obtained from each parameter were compared with the Indian Standards: 10500 (Drinking water specifications). During the summer season the water demand is very high hence from the result the water was found to be safe for drinking.

Summary
Ooty is a famous hill station located in Tamil Nadu. The hills surrounded with vegetation, hills and plateaus and it is one of the people attraction place. The present study aimed to evaluate the drinking water quality of open well water of ooty town. The testing of different parameters like pH, turbidity, total fluoride, dissolved oxygen, ammonia nitrogen, chemical hardness, oxygen demand, acidity, alkalinity and total suspended solids. These parameters can affect the water quality, if their values are in high than the permissible limits given by the World Health Organization (WHO).The review of these parameters gives the information of the water quality. The water analysis of ooty town are not tested everywhere This project shows the quality of water and for the comparison of result various other samples are taken and determined.
