Lineage | The data used to make this coverage was a combination of static water level information from the MGS ? CWI database and from direct measurements made by DNR personnel during the water sample collection portion of the project. Where both types of data existed for a well the DNR data was used. These data were hand contoured by Jim Berg and turned in to digital coverage using ArcView. The chemistry data was then added. |

Entity and Attribute Overview | |
Entity and Attribute Detailed Citation HTML Table (Not Available) | potsfcln.dbf | | | | ID | Unique ID | | ELEVATION | Elevation in feet above mean sea level of the potentiometric surface contour of an aquifer. Contour interval is 50 feet. | | COMMENTS | "dashed" refers to contour segments where line is uncertain due to inadequate data. "solid" refers to a segment that is reliable based on adequate data. | | AQUIFERS | Aquifer to which the potentiometric line pertains: "Opdc_Ostp" refers to the St. Peter - Praire du Chien aquifer; "Cjdn" refers to the Jordan aquifer; "Cstl - Cfrn+" refers to the St. Lawrence - Franconia aquifer. Includes data for Ironton - Galesville aquifer. |
