Service Description: The High Plains aquifer extends from south of about 32 degrees to almost 44 degrees north latitude and from about 96 degrees 30 minutes to 106 degrees west longitude. The aquifer underlies about 175,000 square miles in parts of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming. This dataset consists of a raster of water-level changes for the High Plains aquifer, predevelopment (about 1950) to 2015. This digital dataset was created using water-level measurements from 3,092 wells measured in both the predevelopment period (about 1950) and in 2015, the latest available static water level measured in 2011 to 2014 from 72 wells in New Mexico and Wyoming, and using other published information on water-level change in areas with few water-level measurements. The map was reviewed for consistency with the relevant data at a scale of 1:1,000,000.
