Abstract
Water classification based on mineral content is useful to determine the curative properties of each type. The water type is determined accordingly the parameter followed, like as: physical, chemical, microbiological, pharmacological, physiological and clinic. This paper presents a study of the main types of mineral waters based on specific criteria of classification applied to the mineral water springs found in the treatment resort, Slanic-Moldova. The concept of Stuyfzand�s water classification was applied to build an Android application � named Watershed, using a block-based encryption program, MIT App Inventor. This program classifies the mineral water source by chemical composition and its location on the map using the Google Maps mapping system. By synchronization with the Google Maps online service, a map of mineral water springs at source as well as a capture can be created.

Nutritionists say that carbonated mineral waters generally have a higher concentration of dry residue and chemical compounds and are not recommended for people suffering from kidney or high blood pressure [3]
Summary
Water classification based on mineral content is useful to determine the curative properties of each type. The concept of Stuyfzand’s water classification was applied to build an Android application – named Watershed, using a block-based encryption program, MIT App Inventor. This program classifies the mineral water source by chemical composition and its location on the map using the Google Maps mapping system. Mineral waters for therapeutic purposes have been given the name of curative waters. They are used in the soft drinks industry [1]. Nutritionists say that carbonated mineral waters generally have a higher concentration of dry residue and chemical compounds (calcium, sodium) and are not recommended for people suffering from kidney or high blood pressure [3]
