For a Water Overlay, the watertable can be defined by a groundwater GeoTiff. This can be done by either detailing the groundwater level relative to the surface (i.e. the depth) or relative to datum (i.e. the height).

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Overlays (Ribbon bar) → The Water Overlay (Left panel) → Configuration Wizard (Right panel)
How to add your own GeoTiff with groundwater data to the Water Overlay:
  1. Prepare a GeoTiff file with the desired watertable depths.
  2. Open the configuration wizard of the Water Overlay.
  3. Continue to the step concerning ground water.
  4. If your GeoTiff features groundwater depths, opt for "Select a Groundwater Depth GeoTiff".
    If your GeoTiff features groundwater heights relative to datum, opt for "Select a groundwater Level (Datum) GeoTiff".
  5. Select "Import". The "GeoTiff selection" window will open.
  6. Select "Import new GeoTiff", and open your file.
  7. Select your file in the "Geotiff selection" window, and select "Apply".
  8. Close the wizard.
