    The document discusses key aspects of accurately drawing groundwater flownets. Specifically, it notes that flownets should be: 1) More-or-less symmetric for symmetrical cases 2) Composed of blocks that are more-or-less square in shape 3) Have continuous flow lines that are more-or-less perpendicular to equipotential lines and do not intersect boundaries
