County: Graham Data saved to a file. | ||
Please note: Log data for counties moved to a separate link as the process of saving wells and log data can take too long for entire counties.
Notes:
Most wells have longitude and latitude calculated by the KGS from the legal descriptions.
The datum for the longitude and latitude is NAD 27.
Log data entered by the KGS represents closely what is typed onto the form except for correcting obvious typos and expanding some abbreviations.
Log data entered by the KDHE used a limited number of categories for the descriptions, and is only available for older wells.
