Groundwater Spatiotemporal Data Analysis Tool (GWSDAT): An overview

The GroundWater Spatiotemporal Data Analysis Tool (GWSDAT) was developed by Shell Global Solutions and the University of Glasgow "to provide a simple to use, but statistically powerful decision support tool to environmental engineers and practitioners who routinely report on the status of numerous groundwater monitoring sites.", through the use of joint modelling of both spatial and time elements in a single spatiotemporal modelling framework. The aim of this presentation is to provide an overview of GWSDAT and its functionalities, and to illustrate its use via a published case study.
