Water Resources Overlays Users Guide

Abstract

The purpose of this guide is to assist the intelligence, engineer, logistics, terrain analyst and command functions responsible for locating, developing, storing, treating and distributing water. The guide is designed to assist in the interpretation and use of these map-linked overlays. It describes and defines the data and information on the overlays, how they can help determine the location and availability of water, and when used with information in the base map, plan for water storage and distribution. The guide covers the content of each overlay and such topics as reliability, limitations, definitions of terms, security classification, and acquisition procedures. These overlays are used for comprehensive contingency planning, immediate water acquisition in the field, and for planning and developing additional water supplies by means including well drilling. Water Resources, Water Supply, Ground Water Resources.
