From Data to Decisions: Enhancing Climate Adaptation with Optimized Groundwater Monitoring Systems 1: VIA University College, Research Centre for Built Environment, Climate and Water Technology, Horsens, Denmark; 2: Aalborg University, Department of the Built Environment, Aalborg, Denmark This study investigates the optimization of groundwater monitoring systems to address urban water management and climate adaptation challenges. Using continuous water level measurements from 40 sensors across 0.31 km² in a Danish village, the shallow groundwater table and flow patterns is reconstructed in high detail. The analysis identifies areas at risk of flooding and groundwater infiltration into sewer systems, providing actionable insights for municipalities and utilities. By applying statistical methods, the minimum data density required to maintain accuracy while minimizing costs is calculated. Thus, making the solution economically efficient. This approach offers a transferable framework for stakeholders to balance precision and resource efficiency in monitoring efforts and enables better modeling of the shallow groundwater levels in urban areas. The findings support targeted climate adaptation strategies, such as mitigating urban flood risks and improving infrastructure resilience. Preliminary results demonstrate the potential of high-resolution data to map vulnerable areas and optimize sensor placement. Future work will integrate machine learning models to predict groundwater dynamics under varying climatic conditions, enhancing decision-making for urban water management. | |
