Description:

Abstract: New Jersey Ground-Water Recharge is an estimation of ground-water recharge for New Jersey. Ground-water recharge is estimated using the NJGS methodology from NJ Geological Survey Report GSR-32 "A Method for Evaluation of Ground-Water-Recharge Areas in New Jersey. Land-use/land-cover, soil and municipality-based climatic data were combined and used to produce an estimate of ground-water recharge in inches/year. Recharge was then ranked by volume (billions of gallons/year) using natural breaks in the percentage of total volume.

Purpose: To provide maps and digital data to NJGS clients and as required by N.J.S.A. 58:11A, 12-16 et seq.

Supplemental Information: The ground-water recharge model is limited to parcels of 5 acres or greater. Largest reliable data resolution is 1:24,000.

Data Quality Information:

Attribute Value Accuracy Information:

Attribute Accuracy Report: All attributes created during the creation process were verified by displaying the lines in both the database and the spatial coverage, but no formal tests were performed.

Logical Consistency Report: These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. Line geometry is topologically clean.

Completeness Report: LULC upon which this is based is complete as of date of completion of LULC coverages. Changes have occurred in LULC. The boundary of the coverage is dependent on the shoreline and/or edges of rivers and bays as delineated. The edges or borders of the boundary might change as the natural land changes or better maps and aeria photography become available.

Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report: The data were created using data from NJ Dept. of Environmental Protection coverages. The horizontal accuracy is assumed to be within National Map Accuracy Standards

Positional Accuracy:

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

Vertical Positional Accuracy Report: The data were created using data from NJ Dept. of Environmental Protection coverages. The vertical accuracy is assumed to be within National Map Accuracy Standards

Overview Description:

Entity and Attribute Overview:

Attributes contain recharge in inches/year rounded to 1/100th of an inch (GWR) and nearest inch (INCH) as well as indication of relative ranks (RANK) for three areas. Ranks also indicate hydric soils, wetlands and open water, and areas were recharge was not calculated due to lack of data.  Locational data indicate where each polygon is in terms of Watershed Management Area and Region, municipality, and county. Explanatory text fields are included for locational and rank data (WMANAME, WRNAME, VALUES)
Estimated drought recharge values are placed in the DGWR and DINCH items. They were calculated using climatological data from the drought of record, 1961 - 1966.

Entity and Attribute Detail Citation: GWR, INCH are described in GSR-32. (These descriptions apply to the drought recharge items; DGWR and DINCH). Methodology for producing ranks (RANK) are included in GSR-32. The rank range values (VALUES) were created as described in GSR-32.

Entity and Attribute Detail Citation: County, municipality, Watershed information can be found in NJDEP digital data and myriad other non-digital sources.
