RealFlow® ARCVIEW EXTENSION BY SUMMIT

 

 

One portion of the RealFlow service provided by Summit is the RealFlow ArcView extension. With the extension, a user can instantly view current hydrological conditions of an instrumented wellfield including drawdown, groundwater elevation, and specific capacity. A user can also instantly access the engineering parameters including flow rate, total flow, pump vibration, power usage, and cost per gallon.

The RealFlow extension for ArcView also allows the user to query and instantly visualize groundwater elevation contours or a grid. This allows scientists, engineers, or municipal managers to quickly understand the behavior of the groundwater in the wellfield by communicating groundwater flow direction and areas of drawdown.

Based on hardware conditions, the user is allowed to set the refresh rate of the SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system from which ArcView obtains data.

The RealFlow extension for ArcView can import data from groundwater models. Summit is currently completing the necessary data streams to run various modeling software packages directly from ArcView.

Once a RealFlow groundwater surface has been created, a cross section may be generated to further solidify the users understanding of the current hydrogeologic conditions of the well field. Orthogonal geologic cross sections can also be generated at the direction of the user.
