Datastream

Groundwater Ground Water Levels

Measurement of static groundwater depth in a water well, as measured below land surface

Agency: NMBGMR

ObservedProperty

Depth to Water Below Land Surface

depth to water below land surface (NOTE: THIS IS NOT ELEVATION of Water, if elevation is reported, depth to water below land surface must be calculated using land elevation and measuring point.)

Option of Null, Dry, or qualifications on observed property

Sensor

Pressure

Continuous measurement depth to water in Feet below ground surface (converted from pressure reading and QC’ed from depth below land surface in feet)

Sensor

Acoustic

Continuous measurement depth to water in Feet below ground surface (converted from acoustic device, QC’ed)

Sensor

Manual

Manual measurement of groundwater depth by steel tape or electronic probe or other
