Associated Data Sets: Anoka County Geologic Atlas, Part A, County Geologic Atlas Series C-27, published by the Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS), 2013. More information and downloadable data for Part A is available on the MGS data site: http://www.mngs.umn.edu/county_atlas/countyatlas.htm

## Section 2: Data Quality

Attribute Accuracy: 1:100,000
Logical Consistency: Data are topologically correct using ArcGIS 10.4.1
Completeness: Complete
Horizontal Positional Accuracy: File was snapped to statewide 30 meter LiDAR data.
Vertical Positional Accuracy: NA
Lineage: This file contains point information representing wells with verified locations selected from the County Well Index (CWI) database of well records and related data maintained by the Minnesota Department of Health and the Minnesota Geological Survey. This well information was used to construct all of the geologic and hydrogeologic maps in this project. It includes stratigraphic data that were used to map the extent of the surficial sand, buried sand aquifers, and bedrock aquifers. Some data are provided in table format only (indexpt_other).

indexpt
Field Name | Valid Values | Definition | Definition Source
--- | --- | --- | ---
RELATEID | - | Four 0s followed by 6-digit unique number for well. |
AQUIFER | - | Aquifer code assigned in the County Well Index. |
AQUIFER_Q | - | Quaternary aquifer name, usually mapped at county scale. Quaternary aquifers are named after buried sand units shown on Plate 5, Part A. Some of the buried sand aquifers could not be classified with the specific aquifer_Q name and are therefore shown with the CWI names "QWTA" and "QBAA". The surficial aquifer is identified as "ss". Bedrock aquifers are represented by "bdrk". |
XSEC | - | Cross section number associated with well, letter indicates published hydrogeologic cross section shown on Part B, Plate 8. |
