| Abstract: |
Layer: Pumping Tests Source: Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables, Geoscience and Mines Branch Pumping Test Database The Nova Scotia Pumping Test database is maintained by Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables (NRR) and contains an inventory of pumping tests submitted to the province, typically in support of a water withdrawal approval application. Information recorded in the database includes details about the well construction and pumping test, and the interpreted hydrogeological properties.It is a point feature dataset consisting of 1221 records and is current to November 2021.

| Positional Accuracy | ||
| Horizontal Accuracy Report: | There may be positional accuracy errors in the digital data that come from the original data collection. The data set contains data gathered from numerous surveys and the accuracy may vary between these. UTM Coordinates (Northings and Eastings): Northings and eastings are in NAD83, zone 20 metric units. UTM coordinates in the database have been approximated based on the various levels of available georeferencing accuracy. The method used is recorded in the Georef_M field, the source of the data is recorded in the Georef_S field, and the associated accuracy of the UTM is recorded in the Georef_A field. A further description of the georeferencing method, source and accuracy can be found in the descriptions of the Georef_M, Georef_S and Georef_A fields. | |
