Summary

Digital hydrogeologic datasets were developed for the Greene study area in upstate New York in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. These datasets define the hydrogeologic framework of the valley-fill aquifer and surrounding till-covered uplands within the study area. Datasets include: bedrock elevation raster, lacustrine silt and clay top and bottom elevation rasters, lidar minimum elevation raster, lacustrine extent polygon, valley-fill extent polygon, and surficial geology polygons. Elevation layers were interpolated at 125-foot discretization to match the model grid cell size.

Purpose

Understanding and interpreting the geologic framework from numerous data sources, which provided the necessary foundation for the development of groundwater flow models. These flow models will be used in the delineation of contributing areas to select production wells screened in the valley-fill aquifers (Friesz and others, 2021).
