Data quality report - Completeness omission  Measure description In 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 description The mapping was conducted after a thorough documentation of well locations and water well record details.

Data quality report - Absolute external positional accuracy  Dimension horizontal

Measure description The 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.

Absolute external positional accuracy

Process step  When the process occurred 2012-12-01 00:00:00
Description The 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.


Process step  When the process occurred 2012-12-01 00:00:00
Description Data 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.

Source data  Relationship to the process step used

Source citation  Alternate titles  IDNR-DOW records for domestic and other supply wells submitted by water well drillers from 1959-2012

Process step  When the process occurred 2012-12-01 00:00:00
Description After 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.
