* Locate the well in the deepest portion of the surface ponding area or where ponding most frequently occurs.

* Measure the depth of the water level sensor in the well, relative to the filter media surface to translate sensor readings into surface ponding depth measurements.

* Ensure there is a solid cap on the bottom of the well to form a small water reservoir (e.g., 100 mm deep) to keep the water level sensor submerged during dry conditions. This practice also helps with checking calibration of the sensor.
