EolaíochtWater tracing involves tagging water to see where it goes. The time the tracers take to get from one point to the other is also usually recorded. It is most commonly used in karst environments to ascertain groundwater flow rates, directions and catchment definitions (Zone of...

EolaíochtDifferent aquifers have differing abilities to store and transmit water. Based on the hydrogeological characteristics and on the value of the groundwater resource, GSI has classified Ireland’s land surface into aquifer categories. GSI Aquifer classes are divided into three...

Groundwater sources, particularly public, group scheme and industrial supplies, are of critical importance in many regions. The Public Supply Source Protection Areas dataset comprises Source Protection Areas (SPAs) around groundwater abstraction points that are managed by...

The groundwater vulnerability concept is based largely on the question “can water and contaminants move in the subsurface materials (soil and subsoil) and/get down to groundwater easily?” Groundwater is most at risk where the subsoils are absent or thin and in areas of karstic...

The Groundwater Subsoil Permeability map classifies how easy water can infiltrate subsoils downwards at any point in the land surface. Permeability across the country is classified as either ‘High’, ‘Moderate’ or ‘Low’. This map is used to determine groundwater vulnerability...

Two Source Protection Areas (SPAs) are delineated. The Inner Protection Area (SI), designed to protect against the effects of human activities that might have an immediate effect on the source and, in particular, against microbial pollution. The Outer Protection Area (SO),...

The national Groundwater Recharge Map depicts estimated recharge to the deep groundwater system, i.e. groundwater that can be tapped as the sustainable resource. The main hydrogeological controls on groundwater recharge include subsoil permeability, subsoil thickness,...

This dataset comprises sand and gravel aquifers. Sand and gravel aquifers may be locally important (Lg) or regionally important (Rg). Rg - A sand/gravel aquifer is classed as regionally important if it can supply regionally important abstractions (e.g. large public water...
