12. Aquifer features
An aquifer is defined by one or a set of polygon features
Aquifer features can be grouped by HGUID

13. Wells in the Edwards Aquifer
The Well location is defined as a 2D point in the Well feature class
In the Arc Hydro model we only predefine a set of basic attributes
Wells in the Edwards Aquifer

14. Aquifer and well
Well HydroID = 53

15. Surface water and groundwater
In many cases collected and stored separately
Store, visualize, and analyze in the same context
Well in the Edwards Aquifer (state well )
Streamflow Gage at Comal Springs, New Braunfels Texas

16. Framework
Temporal

17. Time series views – create graph
FeatureID of the time series = HydroID of the spatial feature (e.g. Well)
Well HydroID = 2791

18. Raster Series Raster datasets indexed by time
Each raster represents a continuous surface describing a variable for a given time over an area of interest

26. 3D features (BorePoints and BoreLines)
Combining the well geometry (x, y) and the vertical measurements we can describe a set of 3D geometries (x, y, z)
