Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program

Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program Hydraulic properties characterize a hydrogeological unit. The hydraulic properties considered for this dataset are the transmissivity, the hydraulic conductivity, the storage coefficient, the specific storage coefficient and the porosity. Hydraulic properties are estimated by performing aquifer tests (pumping tests, slug tests). The hydraulic tests and their duration are managed in this dataset. The methods used to create the dataset are described in the metadata associated with the dataset. The dataset exhibits a general description of hydraulic properties of the hydrogeological unit, including hydraulic test, total test duration, method and date. It includes numbers and/or ranges describing the aquifer tests results. Note that an alternate raster representation could be used in complement to the discrete point-based representation. 2020-05-05 Natural Resources Canada nrcan.gsc-geosciencedata-donneesgeoscience-cgc.rncan@canada.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and TechnologyHydrogeologyHydraulic PropertiesGroundwater Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - EnglishHTML https://gin.gw-info.net/service/api_ngwds:gin2/en/data/standard.download.html?THEME=13&BBOX=-180,30.84375,5.019531,90 Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - FrenchHTML https://gin.gw-info.net/service/api_ngwds:gin2/fr/data/standard.download.html?THEME=13&BBOX=-180,30.84375,5.019531,90 Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - EnglishWMS https://gin.gw-info.net/service/gin/wms/mediator/gin_en?request=GetCapabilities&version=1.3.0&service=WMS&LAYERS=hy_cond&legend_format=image/png&feature_info_type=text/html Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - FrenchWMS https://gin.gw-info.net/service/gin/wms/mediator/gin_fr?request=GetCapabilities&version=1.3.0&service=WMS&LAYERS=hy_cond&legend_format=image/png&feature_info_type=text/html Data Product Specifications, Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - FrenchPDF https://gin.gw-info.net/service/ngwds/downloadmanager/file/dps/hydraulic_prop_fr.pdf Data Product Specifications, Hydraulic Properties, Groundwater Geoscience Program - EnglishPDF https://gin.gw-info.net/service/ngwds/downloadmanager/file/dps/hydraulic_prop_en.pdf
