Summary

A digital representation of a glacial aquifer map for the northeastern United States (Kontis and others, 2004; http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/publication/pp1415C; Plate 3) has been prepared by staff of the U.S. Geological Survey. Aquifer data was digitally compiled from a georeferenced version of Plate 3, along with supplemental aquifer maps that covered portions of the northeast.

Purpose

This dataset provides a digital representation of the distribution of stratified-drift aquifers, as mapped in USGS Professional Paper 1415-C, Plate 3. The original mapping has been modified slightly to incorporate additional sources from State mapping, as detailed in the process input section.
