Surveying

1
Surveying

• The purpose of surveying was to measure the
  distance, elevation, and the location of the
  well.
• In order to get a numerical lay of the land, we
  implemented the services of the transent and
  protractor.

Water Table Contours

• We integrated the use of topographic contour maps
  as a visual aid tool.
• They contain information on the elevations of
  landforms in the area as well as key features.

Flow Direction

• Normally, water usually flows into a pond from
  higher to lower elevations.
• In the case illustrated by this chart however,
  the water flows out the pond.

Conclusions

• By surveying, we were able to investigate and
  analyze the physical environment of the ground
  level.
• Through careful examination of the geographic
  properties of the water table contours, we were
  able to hypothesize the slope of the underground
  well.
• We were able to conclude that the flow direction
  doesnt always coincide with the lay of the land.
