Overview
Aquifer water level depths are entered into
the Borehole Manager Water Levels tab.
This table allows you to also enter the date
on which the sampling was taken, so that a
single borehole can have multiple water
levels listed.
You can use the tools in the Borehole
Manager Aquifer menu to create models
of these water surfaces for a specific date or
date range, and to visualize them as 2D profiles, sections and plan maps, and as 3D surface
diagrams and fences. These can be particularly useful when combined with other 2D and
3D diagrams of your project.
The water levels are modeled using surface modeling (gridding) tools.
!
?
Use the water level grid models to constrain T-Data models for samples taken the same
date. (See page .)
Refer back to Chapter 7 for more details about the process of gridding.
Typical Workflow
1.
Enter your borehole locations and water level data (pages 38 and 47)
2.
Establish your Project Dimensions (page 100).
3.
Create a borehole location map to verify well locations (page 110)
4.
Display your aquifer levels in 2D and 3D logs (Chapter 5)
5.
Create an Aquifer Model (below)
6.
Create other Aquifer diagrams
