Description:

Abstract:

This dataset contains locations of and information on aquifers within the Waianae moku (traditional district) on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu as determined and defined by the Hawaii Department of Health. It was clipped from a dataset that contains information on aquifers for the Hawaiian Islands of Hawaii, Kauai, Lanai, Maui, Molokai, and Oahu.

Purpose:

The purpose of this data set is to show the location of and information on aquifers in the Waianae moku on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. It is part of a larger effort to provide the Waianae community, located on the western side of Oahu, ecological and cultural spatial data to assist in their land and resource management efforts.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed.

Completeness_Report:

The following was included in the source metadata and is included here for reference: Although these coverages are complete, final QA/QC procedures have not yet been performed. Attribute data on the aquifer codes and status codes were entered manually and are correct to the best of our knowledge.

Process_Description:

This data set was clipped using ESRI ArcGIS to show only the aquifers in the Waianae moku on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. It was clipped from the state coverage entitled doh_aquifers that contains information on aquifers on the Hawaiian Islands of Hawaii, Kauai, Lanai, Maui, Molokai, and Oahu.

The original data was created as follows: Original maps prepared by John F. Mink and L. Stephen Lau (Water Resources Research Center) for the Department of Health's Groundwater Protection Program. Digitized by DOH - Environmental Planning Office from the original mylars, based on USGS 1:24,000 scale maps. No information on the original map projection or map projection conversions.
