Automated Time Series Modeling for Piezometers in the National Database of the Netherlands

Abstract The Geological Survey of the Netherlands (TNO‐GSN) maintains a public national database of groundwater head observations. Transfer function‐noise modeling has been applied to the time series in order to extract the impulse response functions for precipitation and evaporation for each piezometer. An automated procedure has been developed to assess the quality of the time series and of the models. The time series models of sufficient quality offer far more homogeneous data on the piezometric head than the original measurements. This allows for improved mapping of the head at a specific...
