Abstract:

In 2010-2012, the hydrogeological model (HM) of Latvia LAMO was established by scientists of Riga Technical University. The model will be applied or management of water resources of Latvia. The commercial program Groundwater Vistas (GV) is used for running LAMO. GV includes the MODFLOW program that is worldwide applied for development of HM. Original methods were used to develop LAMO. They took part in performing the following tasks: creating geometry of HM; arrangement of various boundary conditions (digital terrain map, hydrographical network, infiltration flow, conditions on the HM shell surface); calibration process of HM. The methods have been proposed and developed by the RTU team. Because their appliance considerably improves quality of HM they may be of interest for modelers worldwide.
