Abstract

In 2014-2018, scientists of Riga Technical University (RTU) have updated the hydrogeological model (HM) of Latvia. Its current version LAMO4 simulates the steady state average groundwater regimes. The commercial program ?Groundwater Vistas 6? (GV) is used for running LAMO4. Unfortunately, the GV graphical programs cannot provide correct profiles on hydrogeological data that are obtained by HM. In 2014, the first RTU results were reported on creating profiles for groundwater heads and infiltration. Since 2014, the methods for the profiles have been innovated. To minimize the risk of obtaining false results due to human factors, the programs for creating profiles operate automatically with minimal involvement of a modeler. Essence of the methods for exposing data on profiles is considered and their practical appliance is reviewed. The research was supported by the Latvian state research program EVIDEnT.
