The Española Basin Technical Advisory Group (EBTAG) GIS data

Last Modified: 8/12/2002


 
  The Española Basin Technical Advisory Group (EBTAG) is composed of geoscientists and hydrologists who are active in conducting research within the Española geologic basin in north-central New Mexico. The group serves as a clearinghouse of information on research within the basin.

This data is provided through the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer in order that a common database may be made available to the EBTAG user group and others.

  Notes:

The Española Basin Technical Advisory Group (EBTAG) is composed of geoscientists and hydrologists who are active in conducting research within the Española geologic basin in north-central New Mexico. The group serves as a clearinghouse of information on research within the basin.

This data is provided through the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer in order that a common database may be made available to the EBTAG user group and others.

This data is provided as-is for public use. Much of it is available from other sources. It has been edited to occupy the greater Española basin, as determined by EBTAG.

The metadata 'roads' is valid for the shapefiles: Interstates, state_roads, us_highways.

The dem30m may be too large to download over smaller communication lines. A data cd may be necessary to transfer the dem data to a local site.

The metadata 'dem30meter' and corresponding 30meter dem is the data from which the hillshade was extracted.

Boundaries for all groundwater models shown were created by the OSE, with exception of the Eldorado model, which was provided by John Shomaker and Associates.

Well datasets (GWSI, and WATERS) were created by Balleau Ground Water Inc and the OSE respectively. They have not been edited, and may possess duplicate or incorrect datapoints. The OSE WATERS data may include more than one record per well location. Only records which can be located are included. Location data in the OSE Waters database has not been verified. Because the Township and Range survey system does not cover all of the area, and some OSE well records are reported as occurring in projected Townships and Ranges, and / or Land Grants, the well files may not accurately reflect the data available.
