  Description:
    Abstract: This data set represents the extent of the Arkansas Stream-valley alluvial aquifer in the state of Oklahoma.  This vector data set delineates an image file of an alluvial aquifer as converted to a GIS shape file. It was developed as part of the USGS's National Water Quality Assessment program. The image file originated in the 'Ground Water Atlas of the United States' (U.S. Geological Survey HA 730-E).  The scale of the source material is 1:2,500,000 and thus the data are not intended for use at a larger scale.
    Purpose: This shape file makes available GIS data of the alluvial aquifers of the United States.  It was created in conjunction with a study that produced Scientific Investigations Report 2008-5003, 'Estimated Withdrawals from Stream-Valley Aquifers and Refined Estimated Withdrawals from Selected Aquifers in the United States, 2000.'  It is intended for use in publications, at a scale of 1:2,500,000 or smaller.  Due to the small scale, the primary intended use is for regional and national data display rather than specific local data analysis.
