Shallow Groundwater Intrinsic Vulnerability Map for Northeast BC

Description: Simon Fraser University developed a Shallow Groundwater Intrinsic Vulnerability Map of Northeast British Columbia using the DRASTIC assessment method. The assessment was conducted in response to mounting concerns surrounding water management and protection in Northeast BC in relation to shale gas development. The mapping characterizes the intrinsic vulnerability of near surface geological materials to contamination originating at land surface.

Format of data is NAD 83 BC Environment Albers and content type is GIS data. Data was compiled from BC GIS data warehouse. Software used was ESRI ArcGIS.

This dataset was originally deposited in the Simon Fraser University institutional repository.
