pompproeven
Pompproeven is a Dutch term that translates to "pump tests" in English. These tests are a crucial part of hydrogeological investigations and engineering projects, particularly those involving groundwater extraction or injection. The primary purpose of a pompproef is to determine the hydraulic properties of an aquifer, such as its transmissivity, storativity, and hydraulic conductivity.
During a pompproef, a pump is operated at a controlled rate, either extracting water from or injecting
The data collected from pompproeven is essential for designing sustainable groundwater extraction systems, predicting the impact
