Modeling Hydrogeological Units from Raster Data with Aquifer App and Gempy

Construction of complex and high performance groundwater modes requires an appropriate distribution of the hydrogeological units with depth. We have developed an applied case of 3D modeling of hydrogeological units from data provided as raster (*.tiff) files. The webinar all steps from orientation and elevation sampling from raster data, the conceptualization and setup of the Gempy model in Aquifer App and finally the postprocessing of the 3D lithology based on the surface elevation. The input data comes from the USGS research on the aquifer Systems in the Williston and Powder River Structural Basins, United States and Canada.

Instructor / Instructor:

Saul Montoya M.Sc

Hydrogeologist - Numerical Modeler

Mr. Montoya is a Civil Engineer graduated from the Catholic University in Lima with postgraduate studies in Management and Engineering of Water Resources (WAREM Program) from Stuttgart University – Germany with mention in Groundwater Engineering and Hydroinformatics. Mr Montoya has a strong analytical capacity for the interpretation, conceptualization and modeling of the surface and underground water cycle and their interaction. He is in charge of numerical modeling for contaminant transport and remediation systems of contaminated sites. Inside his hydrological and hydrogeological investigations Mr. Montoya has developed an holistic comprehension of the water cycle, understanding and quantifying the main hydrological dynamic process of precipitation, runoff, evaporation and recharge to the groundwater system.
