Data input (Editor)

Primary information from aquifer test field sheets must be entered in the Editor before proceeding to interpretation. Editor enables keeping and modifying factual information, that is stored as ASCII files in ANSDIMAT working folders. After completing the data entry in the Editor, the information is converted to the internal ANSDIMAT format for interpretation using the Create button.

 

Editor dialog box for aquifer test data input: general information.

 

Explanatory table

"General info" tab


Main characteristics of the test: type of conceptual model, input of pumping and observation wells, aquifer thickness etc.


"Project title" text box

Brief description of the project (up to 80 characters)

"Pumping wells" button

Displays the list of pumping wells and enables editing their names

"Observ. wells" button

Display the list of observation wells

"Up" button

Moves a well one line up

"Down" button

Moves a well one line down

"New" button

Adds a new well

"Insert" button

Inserts a new well to the cursor position

"Delete" button

Deletes the current well

"Well name" text box

Specify the name of the well

"Aquifer thickness" text box

Input thickness in confined aquifer or initial water saturated thickness in unconfined aquifer (i.e. vertical distance between the base of the aquifer and the water table)

"Static water level" text box

Input static water level measured from the base of the aquifer, that is regarded as the reference level

"Duration of the pumping" text box

Input the duration of the pumping period (in days). This item is used for recovery test analysis.

Click the left mouse button and Shift key to open the pop-up menu for converting time to days from other units

Click left mouse button and Ctrl key to open the pop-up menu to convert time from days to other time units

"Aquitard thickness" text box

"Aquifer 2 thickness" text box

Input thickness of the adjacent aquifer (aquifer 2) if there is one (for leaky aquifer system)

"Aquitard 2 thickness" text box

Input thickness of the second aquitard (aquitard 2) if there is one (for leaky aquifer system)

"Width of strip aquifer" text box

Input width for strip aquifers

"Angle" list

Input angle (in degrees) between two boundaries for a wedge-shaped aquifer. List of available values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 90. For mixed boundary conditions: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 90
