Hawaii Play Fairway Analysis: Recharge Data for Hawaii Island
This dataset compiles groundwater recharge data for the Island of Hawaii derived from published studies, including work by Whittier and El-Kadi (2014) and Oki (1999, 2002), which are all linked below. The dataset is provided as a geospatial shapefile with associated attribute files and are and for use within GIS software capable of handling shapefile formats.
The data are from the following sources:
Whittier, R.B and A.I. El-Kadi. 2014. Human Health and Environmental Risk Ranking of On-Site Sewage Disposal systems for the Hawaiian Islands of Kauai, Molokai, Maui, and Hawaii - Final, Prepared for Hawaii Dept. of Health, Safe Drinking Water Branch by the University of Hawaii, Dept. of Geology and Geophysics.
