Metadata: Mirabel Region Hydrogeological Units

Identification

Abstract

The Mirabel area is located southwest of Quebec. The area is bounded north by Rivière du Nord, south by the Ottawa River, Lac des Deux Montagnes and Rivière des Mille Îles, and east by the Mascouche River watershed. The area is divided into ten hydrogeological units, based on hydrostratigraphy of the Quaternary sediments. Each hydrogeological unit exhibits a particular geological context. The dataset mainly focuses on the geological and stratigraphic settings and the interaction between the sediment layers in the same hydrogeological unit. The dataset also consists of data on confinement, groundwater storage, surficial sediment and hydrogeological units thickness, wells depth, groundwater depth, hydraulic conductivity, recharge and discharge, groundwater usage, aquifer vulnerability and groundwater quality. The dataset is a summary of data and hydrogeological information for all aquifers, aquifer systems and hydrogeological contexts of the Mirabel project.

General process description
Process step Sources
This dataset was collected from Figure 41 of the "Canadian Inventory of groundwater resources: integrated regional hydrogeological fractured aquifer system in southwestern Quebec" newsletter of the Geological Survey of Canada. The image was imported and georeferenced in ArcGIS. The vector dataset was built with reference to the figure and by creating polygons. The information for the design of the data table also comes from the newsletter.
