The groundwater database extract holds groundwater bore location, construction, aquifer details, level and quality information from the State's core groundwater system. The system is provided in text files and as Microsoft Access database. There are twenty one main tables:

• aquifer

-bore_condition

-casing

-elevations

-facility roles

• field_water _quality

-flow irregularities

-lithology

• multiple conductivity

• precipitates

-pump test readings

-pump test summary

-registrations

-sample record

-sample results

• sample variables

-strata logs

• stratigraphy

• water analysis

• water levels

• wireline logs

For further explanation on these tables, information is found in the Queensland Government Department of Natural Resources and Mining, Groundwater Database : Data Dictionary and Standards.

A read-me file is also provided that allows the user to import each text file to excel or access. All tables have already been imported to the microsoft access database.
