Building a Groundwater Analysis Tool🌊

I'm an AI student with a minor in Geology. This semester, I'm studying Groundwater Exploration Methods and Techniques, and we've been doing Schlumberger VES surveys hands-on - manually plotting log-log graphs and interpreting subsurface layers.

So I thought: why not build a tool that does this automatically?

HydroSense VES

A full-stack app that takes real field measurements and computes apparent resistivity, classifies curve types, and plots sounding curves.
Stack: FastAPI + NumPy + React + Plotly

Progress so far:

✅ Resistivity computation engine (Schlumberger formula)
✅ Curve type classifier (A, H, K, Q types)
✅ Data validation with Pydantic
✅ FastAPI server running with Swagger docs

Small but solid foundation. Building in public from here.
