Groundwater divide water flow direction

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement.

The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

Groundwater divide shows water flow direction based on groundwater Potentiometric surface plots (6c212a1a-658c-41de-92a7-6054349a848b) per aquifer.

Purpose

Dataset shows the different flow directions overlying the the Eromanga Basin aqufers.

Dataset History

Indicates the direction of water flow using the Potentiometric head difference v01(6c212a1a-658c-41de-92a7-6054349a848b).

A shapefile was created for the use of showing water flow direction based on groundwater Potentiometric surface plots (6c212a1a-658c-41de-92a7-6054349a848b) per aquifer

Method:

* A new line shapefile was created with no content.

* The shapefile was then populated in an ArcMap editing session by digitizing polylines to show Groundwater divide .
