16. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions for a well management system, the computer-executable instructions, when executed by a processor, configure the processor to:
perform pressure-based control, wherein for pressure-based control the processor is configured to:
collect pressure readings associated with a water pressure in a well system having a well pump and a well tank; and
control the well pump according to the pressure readings wherein the well pump is activated when at a cut-in pressure and the well pump is deactivated at a cut-out pressure; and
perform predictive control, wherein for predictive control, the processor is configured to:
acquire operational data of the well system, wherein the operational data includes at least water usage data;
profile the well system based on the operational data, wherein the profile includes at least a schedule of water usage determined based on the operational data; and
selectively activate and deactivate the well pump based on the schedule of water usage indicated by the profile, wherein the well pump is activated based on a predicted demand forward according to the schedule of water usage, and wherein control of the well pump based on the profile interrupts the pressure-based control of the well pump.
