About this course
Pumping tests interpretation
Overview
Pumping tests are the most direct way to learn how an aquifer behaves. This course shows you how to plan a test, check the field data, and interpret it to estimate aquifer parameters such as transmissivity and storativity.
You will work through real examples step by step, so you can use the results for well design, yield estimates and water supply projects.
What you will learn
- Plan and supervise a pumping test
- Check and clean field data
- Estimate aquifer parameters from test curves
- Use the results for well and water supply design
Topics covered
- Types of pumping tests and test design
- Drawdown and recovery data
- Common interpretation methods
- Reporting results clearly
Who should attend
Hydrogeologists, water engineers, NGO and government water staff, and students who work with pumping test data.
