Water-tables Elevations and Other Well Construction Data for 2008 and 2016 in Eastern Albuquerque, New Mexico

March 27, 2020

The purpose of this data release is to present well location and construction data for select wells representing the water table in eastern Albuquerque and the selected groundwater-level measurements at the wells from the winters of 2008 and 2016. Construction and groundwater-level measurement data include screening intervals at the water table, reference elevation, depth to water in feet and elevation, measurement data, and latitude and longitude. Well data have been collected from the USGS Groundwater Site Inventory, Kirtland Air Force Base, AECOM, Sandia National Laboratory, and the City of Albuquerque. This data release contains files of the data from 2008, the data from 2016, the data from sites with measurements in both years that were used to determined water table change, and the metadata for the three files. These data were used to support the following published online map which contains the contours for 2008 and 2016 and the water-table elevation change layer: Flickinger, A.K., Mitchell, A.C., 2020, Water-table Elevation Maps for 2008 and 2016 and Water-table Elevation Changes of the Aquifer System Underlying Eastern Albuquerque, New Mexico: U.S. Geological Survey Open File Report Metadata for the online map files can be found in the child item associated with this data release.
