For the 1\u2010year (2015-16) water\u2010level changes, data were computed as the difference in water\u2010level altitude at each point (well) for which a water\u2010level measurement was made in 2015 and 2016. Five\u2010year (2011\u201016) water\u2010level changes were computed the same as for the 1\u2010year water-level changes; the difference in water\u2010level altitude at each point for which a water\u2010level measurement was made in 2011 and 2016. The water\u2010level measurements in the dataset are built upon and stored in the National Water Information System: Web Interface, groundwater information, field measurements website located here:\nhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5066/F7P55KJN\nThis site is a publicly available, searchable, online database of water information.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "http://dx.doi.org/10.5066/F77H1GP3", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.56c235f5e4b0946c651fc290.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_56c235f5e4b0946c651fc290", "keyword": ["Brazoria County", "Chambers County", "Chicot aquifer", "Evangeline aquifer", "Fort Bend County", "Galveston County", "Grimes County", "Harris County", "Jasper aquifer", "Liberty County", "Montgomery County", "San Jacinto County", "Texas", "USGS:56c235f5e4b0946c651fc290", "Walker County", "Waller County", "aquifer", "elevation", "groundwater", "hydrology", "hypsometry", "subsidence", "water-level altitude"], "modified": "2020-08-27T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-96.042013726453, 29.915310111785, -94.851762914057, 31.333428024661", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "DATA Water-Level Measurement Data Collected during 2015-2016 and Approximate Long-term Water-Level Altitude Changes of Wells Screened in the Chicot, Jasper, and Evangeline Aquifers in the Houston-Galveston Region, Texas."}
