Data Quality  Scope of quality information Resource level dataset

Data quality report - Completeness omission Measure descriptionIn conducting the mapping, the author(s) evaluated hundreds of water well records, especially those having relatively complete information on well location, static water level, well depth, ground elevation, and lithology. There were areas in the county with sparse information because of lack of well records or incomplete records.

Data quality report - Quantitative attribute accuracy Measure descriptionThe mapping was conducted after a thorough documentation of well locations and water well record details.

Data quality report - Absolute external positional accuracy Dimensionhorizontal

Measure descriptionThe locations of many wells were field checked and the locations posted on 7.5 minute topographic maps. Visual confirmation of wells was not always possible. Many locations were based only on the street address, driving directions, or other location information provided on the well record.

Lineage  Process step When the process occurred2012-12-0100:00:00
DescriptionAfter selection of water well records was complete, specific well data and other maps and reports were considered in the mapping process. For example, ground elevation, static water level, well depth, aquifer top and bottom elevation and lithology were obtained from well records. Other maps and reports included regional potentiometric surface elevations, hydrogeologic settings, ground-water availability, bedrock topography, and surface topography.

Process step When the process occurred 2012-12-0100:00:00
DescriptionData were selected by careful evaluation of water well records to determine if the wells were field located and if they contained complete and reasonable information.

Process step When the process occurred2012-12-0100:00:00
DescriptionThe hand-drawn work maps (scale 1:24,000) showing lines of equal potentiometric surface elevation were digitized and edge matched in ESRI ArcEdit (ArcScan) by Randal D. Maier. The maps were individually georeferenced using a minimum of 4 tics per map. Projection was UTM, Zone 16, NAD83.
