Geospatial datasets of regolith thickness, bedrock altitude, depth to water, potentiometric-surface altitude, and saturated thickness for the shallow groundwater system in the Lower Gunnison River Basin, Delta, Montrose, Ouray, and Gunnison Counties, Colorado

Abstract

Thirteen geospatial datasets were developed to characterize the shallow groundwater system in the Lower Gunnison River Basin, Colorado. These geospatial datasets provide information about regolith thickness and altitude of the bedrock surface underlying regolith and display, in vector and raster formats, the generalized extent and thickness of regolith sediments that comprise the shallow groundwater system in the Lower Gunnison River Basin; display, in raster and vector format, the generalized altitude and configuration of the bedrock surface that comprises the base of the shallow groundwater system in the Lower Gunnison River Basin; provide information about depth to water, altitude of the potentiometric surface, and saturated thickness of the shallow groundwater system and display, in raster and vector format, the generalized depth to water, altitude and configuration of the potentiometric surface and generalized extent saturated thickness for the shallow groundwater system in the Lower Gunnison River Basin; and define and display the boundary extent used for datasets of regolith thickness, bedrock altitude, depth to water, potentiometric-surface altitude, and saturated thickness in the Lower Gunnison River Basin, Colorado.
