IGW Server Option. In the current version of MAGNET, water wells with measurements of groundwater
levels are available for comparison with simulated head. If the IGW option is selected from the drop-
down menu, the Filter for Well Data window will open (see Figure 6-8). This window allows the users to
choose which types of wells to from which to import water level observations import:

• Drift(D) – include wells of any type completed in unconsolidated sediments associated with
glacial drift and debris
• Bedrock(R) – include wells of any type terminated in consolidated materials/fractured rock
• Public Supply – water supply wells
• Industrial – wells supporting industrial or commercial activities
• Irrigation – wells used for irrigation needed for agriculture/landscaping
• Residential – domestic-use water wells
• Unknown(U) – water wells without use information
• Other – water wells used for some other purpose than those listed above

Check the radio box next to each option to include it in the well selection for importation, or uncheck to
filter it out from the import.

The user may further refine the well selection by specifying a time interval from which to select wells on
the basis of well construction date. To include a filter for the earliest date of construction, check the radio
box next to ‘From:’ and enter the starting date (year, month, day) in the text boxes provided. To include a
filter for the latest date, check the radio box next to ‘To:’ and enter the ending date (year, month, day) in
the text boxes provided.
Lastly, the user may restrict the well selection by a specified data range. Check the radio box next to
‘Limit:’, then enter the maximum and/or minimum head values for import into the text box next to ‘Max’
and/or Min (units: meters), respectively.
After all filters have been
selected/applied, click ‘OK’ to
continue importing data from the IGW
server. A prompt will appear asking if
data should be downloaded for further
analysis (select ‘OK’) or if it should
just be used for display in the
Calibration chart (select ‘Cancel’).

Click on the ‘ReDraw’ button to plot simulation results versus the observation data.
