WISE GWB provisional dataset for horizon 0 - INTERNAL VERSION, Oct. 2012

The shape file GWB_horizon_h0 comprises all Ground Water Bodies of Spain and the United Kingdom lacking a horizon allocation and all GWBs of Estonia.

The dbf tables of the shape files include the columns “EU_CD_GW” as the GWB identifier and “Horizon” describing the vertical positioning. The polygon identifier “Polygon_ID” was added subsequently, because some GWBs consist of several polygons with identical “EU_CD_GW”even in the same horizon.

Some further GWB characteristics are provided with the Microsoft Excel file “GWB_attributes_2012June.xls” including the column “EU_CD_GW”, which serves as a key for joining spatial and attribute data. There is no corresponding spatial data for GWBs in the Microsoft Excel table without an entry in column “EU_CD_GW”.



The spatial resolution is given for about a half of the GWBs in the column "Scale" of the xls file, which is varying between the MS from 1:10,000 to 1:1,000,000 and mostly in the range from 1:50,000 to 1:250,000.

Statement

All GWBs without horizon allocation are aggregated in the shape GWB_horizon_h0 regardless the structure of the shape files submitted by the MS with affiliation to horizons, River Basin Districts or both. The attribute table includes the fields “EU_CD_GW”, “Horizon” and the artificial polygon identifier “Polygon_ID”.

The linking between the shape file and the Microsoft Excel table GWB_attributes_2012June.xls, which comprises further attributes, has to be carried out using the column EU_CD_GW as key for joining the dbf table of the shape file with the xls file.
