Water Exploration

Water resource management involves making wise decisions based on a sound understanding of a region's hydrogeology, hydrology, and ecology. Groundwater exploration takes these principles a step further by identifying areas most likely to yield successful new wells.

Precipitation & Meteorology

MDA analyzes precipitation data from meteorological satellite data in conjunction with ground stations to provide estimates of precipitation, rainfall depth duration and rainfall return period.

Geology & Hydrogeology

MDA's analysis varies from regional assessments and the mapping of surface drainage, seasonally flooded areas, aquifer recharge areas, and general lithology/aquifer identification to more detailed investigations involving all aspects of hydrologic exploration.

GIS & Modeling

MDA uses data layers such as geologic structure, lithology, hydrolithologic units, drainage basins and features, recharge and cultural features to develop a map of exploration potential.
