Create a Well

The term well refers to all water sources that are used for irrigation. 

 Managing one or more wells is particularly useful if you need to keep track of the quantities of water withdrawn.  

 

 What do I need to do? 

 

 In the raindancer portal at the top click on Wells → Wells 

 Click on the " New Well " button 

 Assign a Name 

 Set latitude/longitude. Note: If you are using the map to set latitude/longitude,  please do not close the window with the x- symbol, as this would close the complete setup for create/edit the well and all your entries will be lost. 

 Select the volume or operating time for billing type 

 OPTIONAL Select a team if this option has been purchased 

 Click on " Save ". 

 

 Detailed Information on the Inputs

 Latitude / Longitude 

 Specify where the well is located. You can enter the coordinates manually. Otherwise, you can also use the map tool, which you can access by clicking on the "Map" button. 

 Accounting type 

 Here you specify the billing type for the well. You can choose between cubic metres (m³) and hours (h).
