Wellfield Optimization

Wellfield Optimization is a methodological framework within hydrogeological engineering that systematically enhances the performance and sustainability of groundwater extraction systems by determining the optimal spatial configuration, operational rates, and withdrawal schedules of production wells to meet water demand while minimizing adverse impacts such as drawdown, saltwater intrusion, or aquifer depletion.
