Supplemental Information

Date of some data capture may be unknown, but this does not materially affect data validity. Ongoing update of database subject to funding and is project driven. Normally provided to users as a package, with a CD-ROM with a PC based GIS viewer and summarised data. The GIS will produce digital output in several common data interchange formats. Detailed data are avilable in various formats by special arrangement. Density of data in proportion to drilling densities, from 1 per km2 to less than 1 per 100 km2.

Statement

The data were compiled from original paper records collected by the EA for abstraction licensing, and by BGS for research. Data were subject to review and were assessed by project staff for completeness and interpretation accuracy. The original data were collated to give 'best' estimates for each parameter in individual boreholes and, where boreholes fell within a 100 metre radius, for groups of boreholes. Only the collated data is normally released.
