Data Description

Data Set Name 

Acquifier recharge areas, 1974, Lake, OH

Description Abstract

 

Aquifer recharge areas represent localities which have a relatively high level of recharge to the ground water due to the surficial geology in the vicinity. This coverage was digitized from a paper county map with a scale of 1:63360. Digitizing used run length encoding techniques, sampling along horizontal lines which represented the midline of cells with a height of 250 ft. The horizontal measurement increment along these lines was one decafoot (10 feet). Additional details of the digitizing process are available on request. Data is convered from Arc/Info coverage.
