American researcher David Johnson has advanced a theory that Nasca Lines may be related to water. He thinks that the geoglyphs may be a giant map of the underground water sources traced on the land. The Nasca Lines are located in the Peruvian desert, about 200 miles south of Lima. The assortment of perfectly-straight lines lies in an area measuring 37 miles long and 1-mile wide... While looking for sources of water, he noticed that ancient aqueducts, called puquios, seemed to be connected with some of the lines... Johnson gave each figure a meaning: the trapezoids always point to a well. The circles to a place where the fountain is located. And the complex figures as well. For example, the hummingbird points to a giant well with its beak.

They use a lot of different methods but “just drill anywhere” isn’t one of them. lol
That’s one of the advantages to living on an oblate spheroid.
Perhaps in some regions, other techniques are used but from my experience in Ohio, Louisiana and now Rhode Island, the land owner tells the driller where they want a well. The driller might point out things like not having the well downslope from a septic field. For the most part, if they can get their equipment to the spot, they'll drill.
