Vertical drainage is a method of soil improvement that uses a system of wells or drains to remove excess water from the soil, accelerating the consolidation process and reducing settlement. This process is particularly useful for soils with high water content and slow permeability, such as clay or peat. Vertical drainage can be implemented through various methods, including prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs), wick drains, or wells with pumps.

That's how I heard about it. Hopefully someone has done it and can tell how it went.

I watched some of the video just to see what it was. Thailand probably gets too much water for that to work. Not sure why the OP wants this but if you're getting puddles on your land after heavy rains you probably need to raise the level of the ground and route water to proper drainage.

What a waste of energy and time. He just needed to re grade the area and be done. Do it right the first time.
Most of the sod he put back is going to die.

We digged dickes around our land  leading the water away from out land.

 

Just look for where the water flows on your land, digg dickes, in a grid pattern depending on the size of your land, use gravel if you want smooth surface, if not plant flowers or whatever you want on the edges.
