Contouring

AQTESOLV works automatically with Surfer (v 6 or higher) to generate contour plots of drawdown, recovery and groundwater mounding.

Why Does AQTESOLV Perform Contouring With Surfer?
Surfer is a powerful, general-purpose software package from Golden Software that is popular among geoscientists and engineers for contouring any type of environmental data such as elevations of groundwater or surface water, thickness of geologic units or floating product, and concentrations in groundwater, soil or air. Thus, one software package can meet all of your contouring needs.
 

Contouring results in AQTESOLV is as easy as 1-2-3! Just follow three simple steps in the Grid Wizard and AQTESOLV displays a contour plot using Surfer. It's that easy!

Create custom 2-D (areal or cross-sectional) and 3-D (surface) contour plots for more effective presentation of pumping test and groundwater mounding results to colleagues, clients and regulators.

 

"I really like the automatic gridding link to Surfer!"

Cross-Sectional Contour Plot
Cross-sectional contour plot generated with AQTESOLV and Surfer showing drawdown around a fully penetrating pumping well in an unconfined aquifer with delayed gravity response using Neuman (1974) solution. Note vertical flow conditions owing to the water-table boundary at the top of the aquifer.
