Description:
Abstract:
This dataset includes DRASTIC (Aller and others, 1987) model results for Upper Floridan aquifer vulnerability to contamination. The DRASTIC value serves as an intrinsic vulnerability index for assessing the transport of contaminants from the surface. The DRASTIC model setup requires the input of raster data for depth to groundwater, aquifer recharge, aquifer media, soil media, topography, vadose zone media, and aquifer hydraulic conductivity. These variables were entered into the DRASTIC equation using the raster calculator tool in ArcGIS.
Purpose:
This dataset was generated from the DRASTIC model to test the model's ability to indicate intrinsic groundwater vulnerability in the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD).
Supplemental_Information:
A downloadable version of the final dataset is provided in GeoTIFF file format with 10-meter resolution.
