Scientists in Finland and Britain have built a computer model that visualises what water is doing underground... in real time. They hope the new technology will help water companies extract groundwater sustainably and give a voice to people like farmers, who rely on the groundwater for their livelihoods.

Niko Putkinen, a senior scientist at the Geological Survey of Finland and Holger Kessler, from the British Geological Survey, explain how the system works.
