However for some of the tasks commonly performed in HGA retrieving the complete list of stations in the project may not be necessary Moreover retrieving all the stations Chapter 2 Using Hydro GeoAnalyst when only few of them are needed may be a time consuming process especially for large databases containing hundreds or thousands of stations The solution 1s to create Station Groups Grouping stations into their logical groups allows efficient management and quick retrieval of data stored in the database For instance all stations which contain groundwater chemistry sampling data can be grouped together under a group named as GW Sample Locations Whenever these stations need to be updated with a new groundwater sampling round selecting the GW Sample Locations group displays only those stations that belong to this group Station groups can be created based on any criteria Common examples include e Locations of the stations e g locations sorted by City Project Sites etc e Station type e g Monitoring Locations Boreholes etc or e Purpose of Study e g remediation site monitoring There are two ways of creating Station Groups in HGA e Directly Select two or more stations directly in the Station List tab right mouse Click and select the Add to Station Group option from the pop up menu e Indirectly Using the query builder define a more advanced search criteria and build a station group with those stations that sat
