Study on Technique of Automatic and Continuous Monitoring Groundwater Level and its Application to Engineering

Abstract

Pumping test is a common method to obtain the hydrogeology information for underground engineering construction, of which monitoring groundwater level is an important part. A system of automatic and continuous monitoring groundwater level was developed to meet the special requirements of pumping test. Considering the characteristics of groundwater level change in pumping test, the sensor of water pressure based on vibration string was used. For connecting the sensor and computer, serial communication protocols were programmed in JAVA language. The system was applied to an engineering project, and it achieved the satisfactory effects.
