Abstract

An object-oriented Pumping-Test Expert System (PTES) is developed to assist hydrogeologists in the interpretation of pumping tests and the filing of technical reports. PTES features user-friendly, menu-driven, English/French dialogues and high-quality graphics. It contains over a dozen analytical interpretation methods and about 50 expert system rules for aquifers of confined, unconfined, and leaky types. It uses automatic curve fitting by nonlinear least squares but also allows the conventional visual matching of type curves. The system is implemented in a microcomputer using Borland C\u+\u+ in the Microsoft Windows environment. A few examples are provided to validate the code.
