The U.S. Geological Survey constructed a potentiometric-surface altitude map using ground-water levels measured in the Magothy and Jameco aquifers during the spring of 2013. Contours were constructed at a scale of 1:125,000 from water-level data collected at 101 groundwater monitoring wells. The potentiometric-surface altitude contours were digitized and compared to 1997, 2006, and 2010 potentiometric-surface altitude maps . The 10 foot contour interval ranges from 0 to 60 feet above the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29). This polyline shapefile is a digital representation of the potentiometric-surface contours presented in sheet 2 of Scientific Investigations Map 3326.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/F7RV0KSD", "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.56f595b0e4b06639d52a3a0a.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_56f595b0e4b06639d52a3a0a", "keyword": ["Contours", "Groundwater", "Hydrology", "Jameco Aquifer", "Kings County", "Levels", "Long Island", "Magothy Aquifer", "Nassau County", "New York", "Potentiometric surface contours", "Queens County", "Suffolk County", "USGS", "USGS:56f595b0e4b06639d52a3a0a", "Water level", "environment", "geoscientificInformation", "inlandWaters"], "modified": "2026-04-30T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-73.880421, 40.597148, -72.167892, 41.010578", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Magothy and Jameco Aquifers: Potentiometric Surface Contours, April-May 2013"}
