A city scale 3D geological model to support ground source heat recovery and storage

James, L.R.; Kendall, R.S.; Patton, A.M.; Thorpe, S.; Farr, G.; Boon, D.; Holden, A.. 2019 A city scale 3D geological model to support ground source heat recovery and storage. [Poster] In: The Hydrogeology of the Superficial Deposits, Burlington House, London, 01 - 02 May 2019. (Unpublished)

Abstract
The Cardiff Urban Geo Observatory was established to characterise, monitor and model groundwater and heat flow in a shallow urban aquifer. Mapping showed that shallow ground groundwater temperatures exceeded 150C, due to effects of the subsurface urban heat island (Farr et al, 2017). A 3D model of the superficial deposits was created to better understand the aquifer dimensions and as a framework for a hydrogeological heat flow model.
