Groundwater (GW) modeling has become popular in Vietnam since the last quarter of century. However not always a due attention on the accuracy of the modeling has being paid, making the modeling results be doubted and of negligible use in many cases, especially in academic works. A groundwater modeling program by finite element (FE) method (FEM) by linear shape functions has been compiled to consider the modeling accuracy due to spatial and temporal discretization. Sufficient groundwater boundary conditions in combination with aquifer parameters have been selected for needed groundwater well analytical solution in order to make assessment of the accuracy of the FE model results. Within the range of FE element size (hxy) of 15m25m and time step 0.25day1.25day with backward time scheme, the water level (WL) obtained by FEM in a very narrow zone around the pumping well (30m for case of time step t=0.25day and 230m for t=1.25day ) is insignificantly smaller than the true WL, while for the remaining area the WL by FEM is greater than the true WL, but not greater then 7.6cm. In all cases of different element sizes, the smaller time step, the more accurate WL results, however the improvement is hard to be more than 1cm. Some recommendations on aquifer parameter calibration, aquifer parameter determination by numerical modeling from monitoring WL and pumping test data, GW modeling for foundation seepage deformation have been proposed for required accuracy of the GW modeling for practical water resources and engineering purposes.
