The Arc Hydro ground water data model is a geographic data model for representing spatial and temporal ground water information within a geographic information system (GIS). The data model is a standardized representation of ground water systems within a spatial database that provides a public domain template for GIS users to store, document, and analyze commonly used spatial and temporal ground water data sets. This paper describes the data model framework, a simplified version of the complete…

Arc Hydro Groundwater Data Model And Tools : Overview and Use Cases
TLDR
TheMODFLOW data model and associated tools support the integration of complete MODFLOW models into a spatial database (geodatabase), on top of which custom workflows can be developed.
Building a geodatabase for mapping hydrogeological features and 3D modeling of groundwater systems: Application to the Saguenay-Lac-St.-Jean region, Canada
Automated well permitting via GIS geoprocessing tools.
TLDR
A GIS-based system for automated well permitting involving the integration of a calibrated MODFLOW groundwater model into an ArcGIS geodatabase using the Simulation feature dataset in the Arc Hydro Groundwater data model is described.
An integrated geotechnical database and GIS for 3D subsurface modelling: Application to Chennai City, India
TLDR
The developed subsurface model is evaluated in evaluating the effectiveness of multichannel analysis of surface wave (MASW) tests to estimate the depth to bedrock, which will be of immense use in foundation studies and in ground response analysis.
Regionalization of landscape characteristics to map hydrologic variables
By integrating groundwater, surface water and vadose zone systems, the terrestrial hydrologic system can be used to spatially map water balance characteristics spanning local to global scales, even…

The synergistic powers of AEM and GIS geodatabase models in water resources studies.
TLDR
An object-oriented approach is presented here that associates ground water models based upon the analytic element method (AEM) with geographic information system (GIS) geodatabase features using an AEM Model Interface.
General database for ground water site information.
TLDR
It is proposed that the database structure could be used as a template for designing databases for complex sites, such that any type of geolocalized data obtained from wells, hydrological stations, and meteorological stations can be handled.

TLDR
This comprehensive guide and reference to GIS data modeling in general and to the geodatabase model in particular shows how to make decisions about modeling data that will inform each aspect of the GIS project.
3D GIS : current status on perspectives
TLDR
The aim of this paper is to find the answer to the status of the 3D GIS by analysing both software available and efforts of researchers by addressing some of the issues and problems involved in developing such a system and recommends directions for further research.
