Well location data
All pump sites* Southern Rural Water - This data includes groundwater bore locations, bore construction date, entitlement and metered usage.
* GHD mine models - Pre-existing simulation model well files sourced to provide site specific groundwater extractions associated with Latrobe Valley coal mines (GHD 2011a, GHD 2011b).
* EcoMarkets data - This data set captured the groundwater usage information incorporated in the East Gippsland and West Gippsland groundwater models developed by GHD Pty Ltd (GHD 2010a, 2010b) as part of the ecoMarkets project commissioned by DSE in 2008.
* Stock and domestic - Victorian state-wide stock and domestic data was provided by DSE and included location, completion date, top of screen and annual extraction volume.
* Offshore extractions - Volume equivalent groundwater extractions associated with offshore oil and gas operations were sourced from Hatton, et al. (2004) and Varma, et al (2012).
Description provided by www.vvg.org.au. The WMIS is the statewide repository of groundwater bore information managed by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) for the State Government Victoria. The data in the WMIS was migrated from the former Groundwater Management System (GMS) in 2013 and the current database holds groundwater information on approximately 220,000 boreholes throughout Victoria. The WMIS is also accessible directly through the DELWP groundwater portal.
